Use a longer J-bracket to get above the hedge?

Time to find a new industry!

Thanks for the tips guys. I ended up getting a roof mounting kit from Multimedia Group. They're in Addington and make their own stuff. http://multimediagroup.co.nz/

Installed it today and working well. Mounted base plate to top row of timber below ridge and used a couple of stays, and of course plenty of silicon.

Thats exactly what we do with our rural broadband antennas - a tripod of the exact same design below the ridge line, with the top of the pole and dish sticking up over the ridge aimed at the tower. That way it doesnt look so ugly from ground level.

The cable then goes up under the ridge and down into the attic
