Default Reception/Noise Help

Thanks to everyone for their responses.

If I wanted to start with installing a balun between antenna and
feedline is this a situation where price does matter? Universal Radio
has The RF Systems Magnetic Longwire Balun (MLB)for $80USD and this one
listed on on Ebay http://tinyurl.com/yf3v2lz is $20 (9:1 Longwire,
Balun, Unun,Adapter, Shortwave) Not trying to be cheap, but just to "see
if it works" $80 is expensive and $20 is reasonable.

Also, must the balun be installed outside to work? The more I have
outside the better chance it will be detected by the "Condo Police".
