Finally Moving back to an area where I can use my rig again. I will be
in a two story house and was wondering how running a wire around 2 or
3 sides of the house, under the roof overhang eaves would work. Its
actually a "stilt" type or "beach" type house, and the roof eaves are
probably 25 feet up. I had a long wire some years ago, and got great
results. Would this work well, and should I use 2 or 3 or all 4 sides?
Also... Grounding from the 2nd floor.... Is that going to be a
problem?? Thanks in advance. Gene K3ASA

If you ran the wire around all 4 sides of the house, you could build a
horizontal loop. They work great, but be aware that you are living
"inside" the antenna and RF exposure could be a problem.

I would run the wire around just 2 sides, the two sides least used for
living and sleeping.
