The first thing that comes to mind is a flag pole.

A 22' flagpole (with buried radials) can be base-fed
with an SG-230 (for instance) to achieve reasonable
performance on 40m-10m.

Thanks Cecil, but I can't have any flag poles. 73's



Good lord, what kind of neighborhood won't allow a flagpole?
Unpatriotic creeps? Sounds like you need to get PRB-1 in your corner.
Essentially, they cannot stop you from erecting *something*, you have
the right to an antenna. You might not get something really great, but
they will need to accomodate to some extent. A flagpole antenna is one
of those compromises.
