Default What is your favourite stealth antenna?

Perchance a vertical aluminium pole with an unused TV antenna atop?
(Obviously pointing in the right direction!)


I've heard of wires running along a gutter, but assume that the
building losses (and household noise) must be huge?


My favorite is a flagpole with a few shrubs hiding the matching unit.

Second would be a horizontal loop in the attic.

And once I used a longwire made from #36 wire, buttons for insulators, and
black thread for support.
This one of course needs to use stationary supports instead of trees.
