1. An adjustable antenna mount for attaching a directional antenna to a support, said antenna mount comprising:

  • a post defining a first axis and having opposed ends including a mounting end and a free end,a base assembly rotatable around the first axis and connected to the free end of the post,means for coupling said base assembly to said post, said means for coupling including a first sleeve-and-bearing arrangement with a sleeve rotatably fit about a bearing surface;

    an elevation adjustment assembly rotatably coupled to said base assembly by a second sleeve-and-bearing arrangement and rotatable around a second axis substantially perpendicular to said first axis;

    an antenna vertical orientation adjustment assembly rotatable coupled to said elevation adjustment assembly by a third sleeve-and-bearing arrangement and capable of rotation around a third-axis which is substantially perpendicular to said second axis;

    a tracking adjustment assembly rotatably coupled to said vertical orientation adjustment assembly and antenna frame means for coupling said tracking adjustment assembly to said directional antenna, said tracking adjustment assembly coupled to the vertical orientation adjustment assembly by a fourth sleeve-and-bearing arrangement; and

    a sweep assembly coupled to said vertical orientation adjustment assembly, said sweep assembly having a means for rotating said tracking adjustment assembly around a fourth axis which is substantially perpendicular to said third axis, said tracking adjustment assembly having a means for adjusting the angle of said antenna frame means relative to said fourth axis.
