Hi. If I want to talk abrefoot and run a dipole for 27 MHz in my attic,

noticed there are numerous versions. The vertical is out for obvious

How about a fiberglass marine antenna which requires no ground plane?

Or just as well, a 4ft fiberglass with a piece of metal for the ground

Being indoors or out, makes little difference.
It's what is covering the antenna that makes the difference.
