How 'bout a J-pole in the attic? Even though you don't particularly need UHF, a dual band J-pole would make you a little more future proof. The antenna does not require grounding but you can if mounted outside (peace of mind). Length from base to top of longest element is an inch shy of five feet.
J-poles are simple and extremely stout. Check videos on YouTube. My 2 cents. Jon KF5TFJ On Thu, Aug 10, 2017 at 11:53 PM, Paul Noll via BVARC <bvarc@bvarc.org> wrote: > I need suggestions !!!
