Comptip mast heads are square. Old style mast heads are round. Show us a picture of what you have. |

If your mast head is round... you have the original all aluminum mast. A "CompTip" is a fiberglass upper mast section (above the tangs). Started in production and retrofits in the mid 80's for safety issues related to contact with high power lines. |
