A directional support structure for use with solar panels, flat satellite
antennas, and the like items that are directed toward a point in space.
The support structure includes a mounting plate with an extension tube
extending outwardly therefrom, pivotally secured to a mounting bracket
permitting rotational azimuth alignment of the mounting plate. At least
one locking turnbuckle is attached between the extension tube and the
mounting bracket to provide locking and vertical adjustable alignment of
the mounting plate. The base member includes an attached first flange
positioned along an upper end of the base member, an attached flaring
positioned on the lower end of the mounting bracket, and an unattached
second flange positioned over the flaring, securable to the first flange
with fasteners.
