I find that after the shine goes dull with age my towers/antennas kinda
blend into the background, which in Arizona is the mountains.
We don't have trees that get over 20 feet tall in my neighborhood and unless
you really know what to look for you don't see my stuff if you are more than
1/4 mile away.
70' crank-up with 3 monobanders, 35' crank-up with WARC-7, 40m 4 sq, 80m 4
sq and 160 meter top loaded vertical.
