I have window air conditioners with the support arms under them, and the 
support arms stick out enough I mounted antennas on them for uhf and vhf. HF 
wire is somewhat low profile over the roof of the building, and my landlord 
said yes when I asked about it before moving in. I'd very gladly have given 
up the uhf and vhf stuff if he let me put up my g5rv, but I'd never have 
moved in if I couldn't put up any antennas. I'm glad he let me put up 
whatever I want as long as it wasn't going to be in anyone's way.
