If you can't see the video, please insert this title URL into your browser search box: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PfW3u9YJuhM Here's a remarkably simple and easy-to-use 20 meter indoor antenna from IZ0RQF.  The antenna is built on a 1.66 meter/5.44 feet fiberglass fishing rod with a 1/4 wave length base coil and a .55 meter/1.804 feet counterpoise.  The antenna works well, considering its length and use indoors.  If you need to get on the air from a deed-restricted property (HOA/CC&R), you may find this antenna useful.

20m Indoor Antenna If you can't see the video, please insert this URL tile into your browser search box: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PfW3u9YJuhM. Here's an ultra simple 20 meter vertical antenna that can get you on the air without violating the deed-restrictions of HOAs and CC&Rs.  The antenna consists of a wire, a simple counterpoise, a telescoping fiberglass fishing rod, and a clamp.  According to the maker of this antenna, results with a qrp rig (such as a Yaesu 817) were excellent.  This antenna could also be mounted on the railing enclosing your patio for better performance.  A nice, easy antenna solution for those who can't erect outdoor antennas because of space or deed restrictions.
