The good thing is my apt is 7 stories on the side of a mountain. The bad thing is I can't find any antennas here in South America! I need a pole mountable system, no dipole, it won't work. Any ideas on what's the easiest to build that performs good. Lots of vhf and uhf supplies available, but no 10/11 meter antennas.

Maybe you could buy a Imax from copper and have it sent to you, ask here on forum I bet Lon can tell you if copper sells to other country.

No, I tried and they don't ship to an APO. I think the size of the shipping would be a problem. Yes if someone from Copper sees this, can I have an antenna shipped to Colombia, not an APO but a standard address?

Thanks!!

392, go under customer service and ask them this ?

That will get you the fastest answer. Remember, they are closed until Monday next week.

Years ago they made dipoles that mount on the side of a tower. That would work well from a balcony railing.

They make a U-bolt mount for a stick antenna that would work well if you had a large metal railing to mount it on.
