My antennas are all hidden in my attic space. Home built sleeve dipoles and a log periodic.

I know several hams who have antennas hidden in the attic or under their eaves. We have ours stretched between 2 very large trees (we live in the woods). Even if you know where to look it is hard to find.

Hello, I am new to amateur radio, but a lifelong electronics enthusiast and formally trained engineer. Just because one’s antenna is visually hidden, that does not mean that ‘the man’ can find a station transmitting almost immediately. Correct?
