If you haven't even hung 1 dipole yet, stop worrying about 4 dipoles. You have
changed you mind about 50 times. You also tore me a new asshole over building
and erecting 1 dipole, which would be far more difficult to erect 4, even if
that would work.

Get someone to help you, and put one in your 12 foot attic. You will do fine.

How high is the highest point of your attic, off the ground?

You can put a whole array in your garage and it probably won't work as
well as a 1/4-wave vertical 30 feet in the air. You need height, not
complexity. If you can't challenge the fascist laws of your community
against antennas then think 'covert'. If nothing else works, put up a
nice tall antenna and hang an American Flag on it. Call it a "Rovian"
antenna (a name fresh in my mind from another thread and describes the
intent perfectly).

Regardless, the best advice is to hit the public library and find a
book on antennas. Start with the basics -- you have to crawl before
you can run.

How about a flag pole antenna?

Or do you have a tree you can sling-shot a wire antenna into, Buther Boy?

That works well, I've done it and it's still a backup. =

Yep, he'll need a tuner but that's no biggie. Then he could load up his
rain gutters too, when he wants to go flatside.

Sounds to me like he needs to load up his property association and use the
biggest collins he can find! A human beam!

I've been reading about force 12 antennas...nothing there seems to
work for my application. What I need is a good dipole, which I think
I found. Also, I need to know more about cophasing dipoles. I am
willing to spend the money on up to 4 of them, and I wonder if someone
here can tell me how that process works. I have someone to help me
with the installation.
