Carmela, I strongly recommend that you seek out the assistance of your local
ham club there in Indianapolis. Someone in the club who is knowledgeable
about antennas can come to your place and scope out your particular
situation and make recommendations based on what will work best for you,
given your limitations. In addition, they can even help you get something
operational. All we can do is toss out ideas and conjecture without really
knowing your specific set of circumstances.
For your convenience, I have included information below on a ham club in
Indianapolis that I think would be extremely willing to help you if you seek
them out; here it is:
