[QUOTE="jeallen01, post: 999534, member: 176704"] ) You could disguise it a bit by painting it a darkish colour - I sprayed mine with a random pattern using brown primer and green car spray, and mounted it on a couple of brown fencing batons. Don't forget that at around 1GHz (in fact from about 500MHz upwards), most signals are attenuated by anything in the line of sight to the source - which would include building materials, trees and so on (especially if there is anything metallic involved, and concrete is a pretty good signal blocker as well!) Most do start at around 950MHz and probably block some/all signals somewhere below that (or, maybe don't have much gain below 950MHz), but the one I chose claims to start at 47MHz and there are (supposed to be!) no band-stop filters between that & 2200MHz - and so should cover the airbands.
