![]() Thierry, With a few precautions, I'd place the antenna on the chimney. The primary precaution is to make sure the chimney is constructed so as to be able to support the antenna and mast! Chimneys are not usually built to withstand very much stress from the sides, the antenna and mast will place higher than usual stress on the chimney because of they're wind resistance. The effective height above ground will be slightly lower than the antenna's actual height because of the proximity to the structure. No idea what that effective height might be, and probably not a huge amount of difference from the actual height above ground. In general, the more height, the better the performance. A meter or two won't make ~that~ much difference either way, though. I've no experience with your particular antenna so am no help there. Good luck... 'Doc |
