1. An antenna support system comprising:
a mast comprising an integral mast member;
a first mast member clamp comprising a first steering unit;
a second mast member clamp comprising a second steering unit;
wherein:
in the first mast member clamp, the first steering unit is connected to a first universal clamp plate, wherein the first universal clamp plate can be adapted with a first set of components to form a first clamp for clamping a first cross section, and a second set of components to form a second clamp for clamping a second, different cross section; and
in the second mast member clamp, the second steering unit is connected to a second universal clamp plate, wherein the second universal clamp plate can be adapted with a further first set of components to form a further first clamp for clamping a first cross section, and a further second set of components to form a further second clamp for clamping a second, different cross section; and
an antenna;
wherein the first and second mast clamps are independent of each other and each clamped to the mast member at spaced-apart positions, such that the only load paths between the steering units are the mast member and the antenna.
