There is no balcony so my best is the Elecraft AX1 with the extra 40 mtr coil right next to the window. No fiddling just assemble.Set the dip switch for the band and you are on the air. 10 min max and if you change freq retune the ATU. 73Jim Hk7sss In a message dated 5/13/2020 12:59:29 PM Pacific Standard Time, kg9hfr...@gmail.com writes: Hmm not a a permanent situation but I tried for years now to put up a small antenna, end fed whip etc when at my condo.
