Gee, I live in a restricted neighborhood and I could not be happier with my 40M off center fed dipole I have stapled to the "ridgepole" in my garden home. I mounted a 4:1 balun at the feed point and fed it with 1/2 wavelength of coax. It works 80 thru 10 meters and is easily tuned with my KAT100 to 1:1 on 40 thru 10 and 1.2:1 on 80M. Moving from band to band changes the radiation pattern and on 20M, it has a pipeline into Europe and the Middle East. Made some nice contacts on the K2 alone, I very seldom QRO up to the big gun, the KPA100.
