Something to keep in mind is that many older housing developments may have more liberal or no CC&R's regarding antennas. It just varies all over the map but as a general rule many of the newer develo

Now that's a really Interesting thought... If they have the technology to vary the element lengths they should be able to scale it to vary the boom length for each band for optimum element spacing. 7
