> Ok, so how about clamping the BTV at the head of the stairs, to the front of the railing that surrounds the perimeter of the stairwell, keeping the base of the antenna about 6 inches off the ground.
> I could also attach at least 2 radials, running them along the ground, keeping them in close to that railing or attach a lead to a ground stake driven into the ground, again, close to the railing.
> I think most of the antennas I'm looking at are going to have a contact with the earth, either by a couple of short radials or connected ground stake. I also could use something between the clamps and wood to protect the wood from severe damage.
> I don't suppose the antenna wouldn't cause no more damage then a satellite dish clamped to the railing?
> Steve: thanks for the DX Engineering tip. I've been looking at there stuff and I think your right.
> They could help me get the best out of an antenna package and with the Canadian dollar where it is against the US, the final cost probably won't be that much to swallow. The exchange and customs would probably equal the 13% sales tax and 50 or 60 shipping cost.
> Bob: Hiding a vertical isn't the prob, putting up a tall pole suddenly might be. LOL
