You can put some push pins up in the corner of your room and wrap as much
wire as the pins will hold around the pins .. not ideal, but the more wire
in the air, the more signal. The drawback is noise. If you can get wire into
a tree, use black plastic insulated wire - very hard to see .

Has anyone put up stealthy outdoor wire antenna where it really maybe

Why not put up some "wireless cable". I saw someone offering such cable
for network use on ePay and he got some bids up to more than 10 EUR
for this etra lightweight and nonvisible "cable". :-)

Now to get real. For receiving longwave and mediumwave it is a known
secret to use a rain-gutter as antenna -if it is build of metal-. And it
is worth a try to check out how it works on higher freqs. Just take an
alligator clip and a piece of wire and connect it to your RX.
