I will see how much RG-58 I have and where it will allow me to put it. Luckily we are electrically quite quiet round here, unless a farm has an arcing electric fence. I had 2 months of terrible noise on LF last summer, and never did find where the tick, tick tick of an arcing fence originated. I turn our fence off when operating, the cattle just need a jolt every now and again and they keep away from even a shut off fence for weeks. (Famous last words...). I am tempted to put it atop my 40 foot lattice mast, otherwise I might try and get it well above a fairly big pine tree, with a pole strapped to the trunk. Thanks for the info! -- Best regards, Chris mailto:chris@chriswilson.tv
