What I'm saying is you wont need to toss rope over the power lines. Just run under it. If it looks like you're going to contact, then stop obviously.
Don't want to play with the triple wires in the air :)
Sounds like an HOA to me. Deed restrictions?
From what standpoint? Interference? The higher and further away the antenna, the less interference you'll have.I live with my sister and she is overly anal about anything radio....

Looks like an inverted-L antenna :) Should "work".
I must be missing something: Why are you not arranging the legs as such:
The feed point being the V. The | being the power line, and the / and \ being the leg(s)? And, I wouldn't try to smoosh too many bands on there. Beyond 3, it looks really ugly.Code:| \ / | \ / | \ / | \ / | \ / | \ / | V

I had a similar situation one time. What I ended up doing was making a dipole for 80, then using a staple gun, I fastened the elements to the edge of the fascia around the house in opposite directions. It ended up being an L in each direction if you can picture that. I used some 24AWG. You couldn't see it, and it worked reasonably well on most bands with an antenna tuner. It was all I had to work with and I was able to get on the air.

yea right now I have a 75 dipole laying on the roof (made of rg-59 75ohm) 3.9mhz its 1.1 without tuner. but i just pick up way to much noise I can use the tuner to get 1.1 on 7.2mhz but I RFI the hell out of things in the house... (RFI issues will = me not able to have radio) if the damn house was oriented north-south. in this lot. id be in heaven (house just fits on the lot east-west by inches its so close to being over property lines.

Do you have a good tuner?

If you have a tuner, you could always build a end fed longwire...... Easy to hide and you could snake it to where ever you needed it to go. Here is one to consider: ---> http://www.wa0itp.com/longwire.html
