[amsat-bb] Tripod and G-5500

I am trying to determine the best way to get a Tripod up on my roof with a G-5500 for AZ/EL. I would appreciate any info the board has on what type of tripod works best and where I can get that. Also, pictures would be VERY helpful. I am trying to decide to split the AZ/EL functions or not, so any insite into how to best make this whole setup work is appreciated.

I look forward the great pictures!
