Local hams in my area tend to prefer the remote antenna tuner/random wire solution. Many are using the Icom remote antenna tuner, and as long and high a wire, as far away from the house, as possible. Some are only 40 feet long, while others are 200 feet long, but they all swear this method is the best stealth antenna solution. Most selected units along the edge of their respective condo developments, typically near wooded areas so they have been able to shoot their wires up into the trees to hide them.

Happy Trails.

A thin end-fed wire with an outdoor autotuner and a couple of elevated
counterpoises also works great; I have to believe it will work better than
anything in the attic.
