Unless your roof is very high, a rotatable dipole will have little
directivity. The simplest and least expensive antenna is a wire dipole. If
you want something better try a 33' vertical with a good ground system.

 My urban lot is small enough that I don't have much of a 40m antenna worth
mentioning.

I''m looking for a 40m rotatable dipole (preferably a F12 EF-140S) to add
to the C3-SS on my roof.
The "S"is shortened version. Sadly, nothing larger will fit.

Any leads (or suggestions for alternatives) are appreciated.

Thanks and 73,
