[ARC5] Antenna for small yard

[K5MYJ]

Once the feedline problem is solved an antenna can be made with loading 
coils to adjust the electrical length.

No matter what he does he will never have a good HF antenna with his 
limitations.

I'm 82. I've been retired for 20 years. I live in a 20X20 retirment closet. 
At least it is on the 4th floor.

Probably about 12 years ago I made a 40M dipole about 6" below my ceiling. 
It's good for transmitting on both 40M and 15M. At this location 80M is not 
worth the effort.

But on 40M with SB-301 I have copied Russia, Japan, South America, and 
Norway. I can copy the US East Coast (I am on the US West Coast) and the 
Caribbean.

Does this person have a decent HF receiver?
