I'm another limited space, restricted community
ham (for now).  I've been considering different
types of verticals which might be best.  I THINK,
I'm looking for an antenna which:

  - vertical ?
  - no radials
  - no counterpoises
  - no guy-wires
  - 40 thru 10
  - maybe 4 shorter buried radials (if I must)
  - not a lot of "visual" space, for neighbors

We have a MOBILE Home (mostly plastic, and
wood) - which sits on a slab of concrete,
surrounded by 8x8 wood timers, 2 feet high on
front side of mobile.  Can easily get UNDER
mobile, thru removable siding.

Park owner, OK'd a "marine antenna" - whatever that
means to him.  We live on shore of St. Lawrence
River - Canada in the distance.

What commercial or home-made antenna could suit
my bill?
