I would like to put up a vertical in my back yard, probably something like a
Butternut HF9V. The only problem is that I have a patio cover with a tin
roof. I suspect this will have some effect on the vertical, but I'm not
sure just what. The roof is about 9 or ten feet off the ground, and is
pretty much flat. I might be able to get away with mounting the antenna on
that roof, but I'll need to get permission from our H.O.A. first, and I'd
prefer to have it ground mounted anyway.
Any thoughts on what would be the best thing to do, given I'm not going to
mount it on the tin roof?
