I like the idea of those flagpole verticals. However they are all for HF, do any of them also work on VHF or UHF?

Zerofive is also the company with the 29 foot vertical, which requires no guy wires, http://www.zerofive-antennas.com/.  I have the 29 foot vertical, and it works for me.

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.

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.
