I have come to the conclusion the only antenna I am going to be able to use
is a ground mounted dipole or random wire. No antenna supports in the yard,
no fences, no attic. I tried a vertical "flagpole" but it is just too noisy.
Nothing but me and the yards of my two neighbours. I am able to run about
60 feet of 22 gauge green enameled wire along the length of the yards. I
have done extensive reading on NVIS propagation, but I'm curious if anyone
is actually using this method on 160, 80 or 40m.

Thanks,

We used an NVIS for Field Day this year, and it was a lot of fun. Good
for 40 and 80, and that's about it. Ours was built after the Jelenik
design (http://www1.vcars.org:8040/CARL/NVIS.html), with an SGC tuner
at the base.
