[Elecraft] A Solution for Antenna-Restricted Hams?

[David Y.]

Here in Tucson, The Larson Company (http://www.utilitycamo.com/) is very 
successful making all sorts of "camoflauged" antenna structures.  Fake 
saguaro cactus designs are quite popular.  Unfortunately, this stuff isn't 
cheap!  Disguising cellphone towers is a big part of their business, but 
they do all sorts of exotic things.
