Craig,
You might like reading the articles at http://www.cebik.com to get a feel for what things to try in your next experiments. If you don't like the results of Ron's suggestions (which by the way is what I used in FYBO this weekend) you might find you can fit a similarly-sized doublet center fed with twinlead outside the house to an Elecraft balun and then a short run of coax through the wall to the rig. The WireMan has good twinlead for not much money, and black teflon wire that is extremely hard to see from the driveway. Emtech makes a small, cheap clamp that will hold twinlead to the wire mechanically. Here's an old discussion on this topic: http://www.ac6rm.net/mailarchive/html/elecraft-list/2001-10/msg00931.html
