Starting to get some better receptions on 630m now. I am using an Inverted L with and inverted V top over the roof of my HOA restricted condo here in Northern Utah. 

The wire goes from a 9:1 UnUn at the ground, up 10 ft to a lower part of the roof, then rides over the 18' peak and down the other side. It is about 40 ft of wire. The 9:1 UnUn seems to work better than the previous 4:1 I was using. I might have to try my 16:1 next just to see if it hears more like the LNV that Steve, VE7SL, blogged about at https://ve7sl.blogspot.com/2015/01/the-low-noise-vertical.html
