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??
