1810 or 1809.9  is a good spot because it is the limit of many EU TB'ers 
and fewer East Coast big guns are parking there calling endless CQ's.

I used to have fun working on the higher bands nearby stations using a 
light build (dummy load).  This could be a 20X or 100X mult but let's 
hope not. Then how about just coupling into the power box with some 
blocking capacitors if you live in the country and can't get up a wire.  
Problem with that is the performance would be an infinite numbers of 
variables each one would be infinitely variable.

There has to be a "no antenna at all" award in the works.☺
