Sounds like the antenna a local ham friend of mine put up at his 
place.  It's called an s-9.  That's also a 31 foot fiberglass 
telescopic mast that holds up a vertical wire.  Jim WA6EKS.

Hi All
In May I put up a Gap Challenger vertical that operates on 75, 
40, 20, 15,
12, 10, 6 and 2
meters.  I live in an apartment that has a 10 by 16 foot fenced 
patio.
The antenna is approx.  31 ft tall and seems to work wonderfully 
well.  Gap
also makes several other HF antennas.
Best 73's,
Albert, WA7FXB
Greenville NC

       we are kind of wanting one put together, and we have a 
fenced in=20
  patio so not very good for trees.  I mean, there are woods 
behind us,=20
  but we realy can't go outside our patio.
