Yes, and I'll suggest that you buy the tallest one that the HOA will 
approve, simply because taller makes it more efficient. Also, on-ground 
or buried radials don't have to be resonant or all the same length. The 
only rule of thumb is that more wire on the ground is better. Wire size 
is important only to the extent that it's big enough to hold up better. 
Wire can be insulated or not, but definitely NOT stranded (less corrosion).
