I just realized that my previous message was sent in html format. Which
means that the reflector stripped the text! That explains some of the
answers...
Here is what I meant to ask:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
I am moving to an apartment on the top floor of a 10 story building. I
have access to the roof which has a 30' x 10' flat space. On one edge of
this space is a building 9' high with a flat roof of about 10' x 20'. I
can put up antennas on top of this little building and on the flat area
mentioned above.
But there is a catch: the antenna has to be either a wire antenna, or
substantially vertical. If vertical, it can't exceed 29' in height above
the roof of the small building. Beams not allowed!
I want to operate on 40 through 15 meters. The antenna needs to be able
to handle 1500w.
I prefer horizontal antennas because of the extra gain and lower noise
pickup. I prefer a balanced antenna because of noise and RFI
considerations. But I'll consider other options if there are overriding
advantages.
Suggestions?
