Hi Ted,

Some years ago when I still lived in my parents home. (50 years ago lol )
There was an old lady neighbour that was the "POLICE"
My mother did not want to fall out of her when I mentioned
an antenna across the street.

I ran coax up the wall and dropped a 20 metre dipole clipped inside
the front of the gutter.
Well waterproofed though
Ours were wood then..YES lots of years ago.

It worked , I think I made W.A.S but conditions were better then to.

But its worth a try.
