Some trees would help camouflage that thing. I'm all for putting up
the antenna you're legally allowed to put up, but it's a shame that one
has to anger the whole neighborhood because everyone basically ends up
with an unobstructed view of your 4 element SteppIR even when the tower
is retracted to 21 feet!

It's too bad you can't buy and transplant 30 foot trees!

That video makes me want even more to live in the country when I'm done
in grad school. Fortunately, neither my YL nor I would want to live in
a neighborhood where all the houses look exactly the same and there are
no trees...

I wonder if he could camouflage that as a giant, whole backyard patio
umbrella. 'Course that's probably not legal.

Speaking of "monstrosities and eyesores, those neighbors bitching about
the antennas aren't that much fun to look at. Ban them while they are at it.

At least PRB-1 has the local peasants keeping their pitchforks and
squibs at home.
