Randofo, I'm surprised you didn't mention your Camouflaged Power-Source LiberatorCamouflaged Power-Source Liberator, this would be the perfect solution for this problem!
As far as location is concerned, from what i understand, location is irrelevant, as long as its publicly accessible. So this, combined with your project, could be put on or near an outlet, where its much less likely to be damaged, and I'm sure someone could come up with a way to secure it, even if it meant chaining it to a pole.
I'm sure that it wouldn't be too hard to make a better antenna or something to extend the range.

Also: in the main picture the subject turned his back to a Fiat 500L (in a pretty good shape, apparently). Shame on him !
Ciao e complimenti.
