Your 34 ft mast stows on the two brackets located at the rear of the Wireless Box, mid-point behind the ladder to the left of the rear door. The base of the mast sockets onto a post plate assembly at the lower edge of the body and a U-shaped steel plate fits over the upper end of the mast near the top of the ladder and is held in place by two wing nuts.

The 20 ft mast stows at the upper front of the Wireless Box in two "rifle" brackets, base to the left. Don't try it if the rubber coating on the clips looks brittle, they will shatter as it is a snug fit.
