I'm really jonesing to bring my 11m mobile unit indoors, I think I'll enjoy it much more in the comfort of my own home.
One "minor" stumbling block is that I live in an HOA area. I've researched stealthy antennas and so forth briefly and came up with a few ideas for my shortlist. They being, tree antenna no ground plane?( not a dipole, ) , short antenna on a roof vent pipe ( b100 workman most seem to hate) other choices? Magmount on chimney cap, or even considered making a mast with pipes stuck in ground, but most of the antenna will be blocked by wall of the house, which might be useless or worst than b100? Ive also considered flag pole, but looks too involving.
The other thing I recently noticed on the internet was something called a Dxtreme ultimax hoa friendly antennas. Anyone experience this type of antenna system's for 11 m? They even sell a seperate counterpoise to get better reception and transmission for additional price. Looks stealthy, and these people aren't too far from me. I was looking at http://www.ultimax-antennas.com/store/p10/ULTIMAX_HW-END_FED_(NO_TUNER_ANTENNA).html or what you think would work better for 11m on their website.
Was thinking about mounting the wires one on roof peak horizontal and or side of eaves facing out perhaps.
