Just drop a wire from the ground side of the antenna the longer the better.

Hello,

I'm curious - what would happen if I tried to take a good mobile type
antenna, and stuck it on a second floor house window (outside)? Would
that work decently? I ask because I don't know how much longer we're
going to have this house, so mounting the discone I mentioned in
another thread might not be such a hot idea...

If this would work OK, does anyone have a recommendation for a good
antenna to use for that?

Thanks,
Jeff
