Re: [IRCA] how do I hide my outdoor antennas?

["Bob Young" <youngbob53@xxxxxxx>]

Plain copper wire is almost invisible, I've snuck them up at times early in 
the morning or right at sunset when no one was likely to be looking if I had 
to. Once they are up people usually don't even know they are there. That's 
too bad though, my landlord allowed me to put up two 400' LW's. That is one 
of my criteria when I look for a place, can I put one up and will the 
landlord allow me to? Life is too short to live with lousy antennas. You can 
always make an NRC loop whoch also work great, they do take up quite an 
amount of space in your listening area though. They are not as good as 
really long wires however.
