Putting a antenna right up next to a tree where the branches are hitting the antenna itself is not a good idea, unless you just want to make contact with someone in your house maybe...

Look at it this way...Your antenna is the most important part of your station...skimp on the antenna, and it won't mater how much power your running, your signal will suffer greatly...

There are short/stubby antenna's available that will work, but when it comes to 11 Meter (CB Band) "taller and higher, the better"...just no two ways around it...
