That's one interesting way to have a quick mount for your Buddistick. I like the hinge. I've been thinking about getting one. I compared the Stick vs. Pole and a decision is tough.

very clever setup! how is the earth-ground connected? is it wired to the building wiring or did you run your own cable down the exterior?

SteveinKentucky, the hinge is actuall one half of an antenna roof mount which I took apart for this purpose. I did find that putting 9 buddistick arms together for a total of 16 feet was a lot better antenna for 20 meters.

@KD7GGQ - There is not earth ground. I am too high up to have a short connection to earth. Any such wire becomes a radial. The cold water pipe is 20 feet away in the bathroom, so that is also too long. What would you recommend? Anything too long becomes a radial.

This BuddiStick consist of two Buddipole Arms and one 66 inch Buddipole Whip. That would make the length about 110 inches not including the coil.
