Greetings all,

I'd like some "brainstorming" help on an antenna  for my dad. He is on the 
third floor of an assisted living apartment  facility, and we've been trying 
to figure out if we can get him on the air  from there (even on a limited 
basis). Dad has been trying some indoor  antenna setups (such as the Hamstick 
type dipole arrangements) but  apparently to no avail. I suspect this has to 
do with the construction of  the building (i.e. iron frame etc.)



how about a DK-3 or another screwdriver antenna, mounted on the rail, or on  
a 3 foot tripod out back with a few radials on the ground along the bas of the 
 building??
