A 2 meter friend of mine married a well to do lady who
insisted they move to a better part of town.  This better place
wasn't for hams because it had bad antenna covenants and they
wouldn't allow any outdoor antennas for anything.  He did squeak a
15 meter wire antenna up in the attic of the house but he wasn't
satisfied with the results.  I told him to check with the home
owners association to see if having a bird feeder on a tall pole
was ok.  It was.  I told him to buy a vertical, one of the shorter
ones like 20 through 10 meters, stick it inside PVC pipe, and at
the top, drill holes for the loading coil spokes to stick through. 
I said they will just think they are perches for birds.  Isn't
that nice of you.  I told him to buy four 8 foot ground rods and
pound them down below the grass level so they could not be seen,
or even into the ground and below the surface an inch and connect
wires to them and run them beneath the soil to the base of the PVC
pipe where they could connect to the ground of the vertical.  He
did.  I told him to put a bird house on top of the PVC pipe.  He
did.  He ran 2 KW without anybody knowing he had an outside
antenna and he got out big time on those higher bands.

Phil.
