Abstract
An antenna support structure has a base for mounting on a pole clamp. The position of the pole clamp on a pole is adjusted by use of a removable installation tool. The installation tool comprises front and back tool clamp plates that are frictionally secured about the pole by fasteners. One or more adjustment tools may be mounted on the tool clamp plates and interact with the pole clamp and the antenna support structure so as to effect movement of the pole clamp and the antenna relative to the installation tool and the pole. Movement of the pole clamp and the antenna relative to the pole allows an operator to finely tune the azimuth and/or elevation angles of the antenna which is mounted on the pole clamp.
