There is a option for no radials.From the bencher site...<hr />277-26 Model CPK Counterpoise Kit

for HF6V and HF9V. Use where radials are not possible. Offers a simulated ground to replace radials. Four 5-1/2 ft rigid counterpoise tubes form a square measuring 8 ft 3 in on a side. Should be used at least 7 ft high for personal safety. Ship weight: 9 lb (4.1 kg)

Thanks Mike, that's what I was looking for.

Now if I can get some real working experience for 6m

I'll be happy. <img src=http://www.ezboard.com/intl/aenglish/images/emoticons/smile.gif ALT=":)">

Hmmm, I wonder if that would tune in for 11m so I could still talk to my neighbor now and then.

Does anyone have any experience or feedback on this antenna? I notice one report on eham about not having enough roof to mount one of these. Does anyone have specs on how big the radials are?

It may work fine for 11m. I was playing around the other nite and the tuner in the Kenwood would load the I-Max 2000 on 10, 12, 15, 17, 20 & 40 meters. It might not talk farther than across the street but it did load it up.<img src=http://www.ezboard.com/intl/aenglish/images/emoticons/laugh.gif ALT=":lol">
