1. An adjustable mounting device for a signal which device releasably attaches to the outer surface of an elongated object having a longitudinal axis, the mounting device comprising:

  • a rigid mount base having at least two opposed flanges extending downward therefrom, the flanges adapted to engage the surface of the elongated object;

    at least two rigid arms, each arm having a pivotal coupling with the mounting base, each arm including gripping teeth spaced from the pivotal coupling, the teeth adapted to engage the surface of the elongated object as the arms are swingingly pivoted toward the surface of the object;

    a chain adapted to wrap around the surface of the object and interconnect the arms when the signal is mounted onto the object and the chain is wrapped around the surface of the object; and

    a tensioning device to pull the flanges into the surface of the object and pivotally engage the teeth into the surface of the object to releasably anchor the signal to the object.
