First I would say put it on the grass.  But the Antenna itself is very easy 
to work with.  The sections are about a foot long.  They screw together. 
Then the Coil screws on the top of that, and then a telescopic whip goes on 
that.  The Radials plug in with a small The Antenna comes or can come with a 
clamp and mounting bracket or a very small tripod.  You can add sections 
below the Coil if you want, and I think they have an electrically controlled 
coil so that it can act like a screwdriver.  You might Google W6MMA who is 
the creator, or Google Super Antenna.  I will try to find direct links for 
you.  Gerry
