A stake (10) extends from the lower side (15). The stake (10) is capable of mounting into the ground. A spring (18) extends from the upper side (13) of the base (14). A mast (24) above the base (14) is movably, resiliently mounted to the base (14) by the spring (18). A lateral dielectric guard (28, 128, 228) is mounted at or the near a top of the mast (24). An antenna (30, 130) is associated with the top of the mast (24), the antenna (30, 130) coupled to a transmission line (20) that is secured to or by the mast (24).
