Ok I need help. I live in Az and I have a home owners association. Im tired of just talking on my mobile i want a kick butt base. Now given the fact that I have an HOA I think a di pole set up is my only option. I've heard you can use two of them (one hoizontally, and one vertically) to get 360 degree coverage. But I'm gonna wanna run a lot of power. Can I run filters and not bleed through my neighbors. I just need some advice. Thanks |

running a lot of power is going to be the hardest part of your stealthiness.
you want two dipoles, one north/south, and one east/west.
one can be placed along the ridgebeam of your roof, and the other can be used as an inverted V using the pitch of the house.
lots to consider here, and you should do some searching on dipoles to decide which configurations you can use.

sounds like its about time to erect an antron 99 five feet off the ground, and wrap fake leaves and branches around it.
"nope, its not an antenna, its a spruce!"
for dipole designs, you just need to type in "dipole plans" or "building a dipole" into the search engine that you prefer, and spend a few hours looking over the results.
you will learn a lot!
also try a search on "stealth antennas".
