Linwood writes with a difficult question. Where can he put his HF antenna?
We take an in-depth look at his situation and make some suggestions that might be helpful to anyone looking to put up an HF antenna in a real-world environment. I don’t use Linwood’s last name or callsign to preserve his privacy.
