Al, I expect that what you propose would work, but suggest that it would work even better wit a wire at least a quarter wavelength or longer at the lowest frequency, and longer will work even better.

I have recently purchased (Just to play with) an Isotron for 40M.. It works surprisingly well for a 2 foot by 1 foot by 1 foot antenna. You could put several of thes on a mast and put it on top of th

Al, My uncle was in the same situation, living on the ground floor of an assisted living apartment. He was not allowed any outdoor antenna. I built him a magnetic loop antenna for 40m, using parts I

Al, An interesting problem you have. Let suggest that since you have the maintenance guy willing to help try a variant of the sky loop in the antenna handbook. It will be a loop of wire the you rum a

Hi Al, I am 78 years old and live in a retirement community. I have a problem with antennas as I have to use one in the apartment. I am using an ISOTRON 20m antenna sitting on the top of the bookcase

My friend w4sk lived in an apartment. he had access to the flat roof. we constructed a multiple band dipole -- two or more dipoles fed with one feedline -- and tied the ends down. I don't remember ho

Consider using a LDG or similar end fed wire automatic antenna tuner at the window with counterpoises for each band. A single quarter-wave (on the lowest band used) wire should provide good results.

Don't forget, little creepy-crawly pieces of #28 ins. wire have been known to slithery out of teeny window sash cracks, and hang almost 3-stories to the ground. Sometimes they sneak back inside durin

Al, there is a good chance a wire in a bead of RTV will be so close to the building as to be detuned by the capacitance to metal frame. You may do better with a wire on standoffs 5 inches or more fro
