I was starting to worry that my aerial was not working. Yesterday I measured the FS and it was way down. I went up the hill and put a big insulator on the far end of the wire and raised it up about 10 feet. My aerial current went up by 50%! It seems that the insulation on the wire was not very effective when I had the far end tied off to a tree! 73 Joe
