Ground mount it and put as many radials on the ground beneath it, Ideally you can use 14 guage wire about 32 of them or more in a spoke type fashion around the base of antenna connected to the ground of antenna or shield of coax. If you cant put the radials on neighbors property put as many as you can on your own. Hell they are only 9' of wire I do it at night the grass will grow and he may never see em. But you need them below the antenna to minimize ground losses. Dont think the fence will work so hot for that.
