David, I don't have time right now to go into details, but my rather
extensive research on this vary question revealed that he best flag pole
antenna on the market is the ZeroFive flag pole antenna. It gets the very
highest positive reviews. The downside is that it is also possibly the most
expensive. It does not require any guy wires; though, for best results, it
does need radials.

Subject: Antenna talk: Desire info on the 29 and 45 foot vertical antennas,
etc.
Hello, Listmates:
My wife and I may be moving to one of those south Florida
gated communities with HOA/deed restrictions preventing overtly visible
antennas shortly after the New Year. In case this occurs, I believe that
some of these subdivisions will allow "flagpoles", or some such thing. I
recall that in past months there was some discussion online regarding a
particular product line of vertical antennas that were in either the 29 foot
or 43 foot lengths. I would appreciate if someone could share the basic
product line website info and perhaps some installation and operational
hints & kinks. And, of course, what is "required" for radials - inasmuch as
some of these residential properties don't have great rear yard space.
I presume that guy wires may be necessary, particularly for
the taller antenna. Although we may not ultimately end up in a too small
yard, deed restricted neighborhood, some stealth antenna information would
be greatly appreciated now rather than later. Thanks in advance for your
assistance.
