11 meter is very quiet?

[Farmer Brown]

Tie a rope to the tip and hoist it up maybe?

Or put a car in the front yard with no wheels and they would never see the antenna. Haha

That's the truth lol

Just talked w/ one of my locals , always thought he had a base antenna connected to his Browning Eagle ... Wrong ! Coax out the window connected to his Black Al Capone on his truck ! Sounds so good over 30 miles away you'd think he was on a base antenna ! No big amp he's pushing about 50w out of it .

That’s awesome. As much as I really enjoy DXing from my mobile, I really need to figure out something for the house that won’t trigger a HOA Nazi full-blown meltdown. My attic dipole is excellent on receive, but no dice on Tx. I think I can pull off an end fed half wave from my gable to a pine tree...and that would be at least 30’ off the ground. Just need to get around to building it...and up and down the ladder 1000 times while I get the matching right.

Fishing pole....with weight. Cast to tree branch, tie braided black line to line. Up over limb back down. Tie antenna to braided line. Pull. Leave a line tied to the rigged line to pull dwn for tuning. Easy.

Does that mean he is using a small amp?? Never seen a 7558 tube push 50w

I was looking at a Boomerang and more antennas on line just a few days ago, they were designed for your situation. I'll try to remember the others, one would handle 2400 watts

Will he need a fishing licence?

75 , To be honest I know nothing about Brownings , I asked him if he had the one ( I thought ) had & amp that came in the set that put out 100w he said No I don't have that model I'm only doing about 50w , this is the way it came . Next time we chat I'll ask him more . Sorry ! But you can ask me a question about my 2K . At Least I know about mine . A whole 11w .

One can get away with lots of things using a car in the yard.

That's all he needs to do, build a chicken coop and they won't even see the sirio 4 element lol

 

[2NC995]

Sure is quiet out there today.

 

[Rick330man]

Ha that HOA wou

Where HOAs are involved, patriotism prevails. You put up a "flagpole."

 

[undertaker]

Back when I lived in an HOA I put an a99 on a small mast in the stake hole in my pick up bed . Ran coax thru window of condo and it worked!!

P.S. Will never live in one again!!! They can all get bent

Ours is actually not that bad....the restrictions are terrible, but they don't enforce much of anything. Cuts both ways, unfortunately, because I wish they'd crack down on the loose dogs and cats.

The neighboring community "president" has a private airplane...they can't even have peace in a fenced back yard!
