I live on the 13th level of an apartment block with a big dipole on the
roof two floors above me. I overcame RF in the shack from my 100 Watt
rig using an MFJ Artificial ground and a counterpoise of a wire running
round the skirting boards of the room. It seems to do the trick.
I can't remember the cost but it wasn't a great amount and it has been
worth it.
It wouldn't be a difficult thing to home brew. In a QST review by Doug
de Maw W1FB there is a schematic diagram. Unfortunately the photocopy I
have doesn't show the date but it was +/- 1991..
