> There's a fence that surrounds the property, 2 sheds in the backyard and I would guess the backyard, which is total grass is about maybe 50 or so feet long and perhaps 40 feet wide. 
> They don't use the backyard all that much except to keep it nice and tidy for the neighbourhood. LOL They are the type of people who wouldn't want to see Coax going from a fence for example, running under the patio into the apartment.  
> Likewise 20 or 30 25 foot radials spread out even though you could pin them down to the point where they'd be covered up by the next growth of grass. I'm thinking that if my antenna was contained to the stairwell area, mounted to the perimeter railing and 1 or 2 radials placed behind the antenna to run around the railing might be ok. 
> Also, if my coax simply runs under the door and not drilled, that may do as well. I really got to educate them on this though because their impression of Ham Radio might be CB. So we'll have to see and I'll have to get some pics of a vertical installation.
