Default apartment balcony stealth antenna

We are stationary until the end of May in a 2nd floor (of 3 floor) apartment.

The only ideas I can come up with are:

1- a random length wire antenna and antenna tuner ( max length about 25 feet)

2- clamp on railing mount (might be too visible)

3 - some kind of an end fed wire ( again max of 25 feet)

it also has to be cheap since it is only for a few months.
Interest is mostly short rag chew on 20-15-10, so might get away with a short wire.
RF grounding for noise reduction is a concern also.


Suggestions are encouraged!
