Van,

Yes, this reflector has been rather quiet for a long time.  I, also, have a 
challenging antenna situation ......... I live in a new development with CC&
Rs that state "no visible antennas allowed".  Compounding that fact is there 
are no trees around that are higher than a single story and all of the houses 
are 2 stories!  I joined to get some ideas but haven't heard too many.

My current thought is to run a loop antenna around the inside of my attic as 
big as I can and couple it with an SGC automatic tuner at the feedpoint.  
It's still in the works so I can't yet report on the efficiency.

Well I joined this group a few months ago and get no traffic. What gives?
Anybody out there?

I operate from an end unit Townhouse in Gaithersburg Md. I use 10 and 20
meter Isotrons in the attic along with a Ringo Ranger on 2 meters. Outside I
have a vertical from a PRC-59 mounted on the ground next to my deck. To keep
the peace I find that I get the most miles for my watts with PSK31, the 20
watts PEP seems to keep the RFI at zero with the neighbors.

What's everybody else doing?
