Default TOOL FOR CUTTING EARTH & BURYING RADIALS ????

A friend of mine told me that at Dayton, over the past few years, he has seen a
tool that looks like a lineoleum knife with a small tube welded onto it for
cutting the earth and burying an antenna radial at the same time. You feed the
wire through the tube, and as the tool cuts the earth, it dispenses and buries
the wire. Has anyone seen this tool, and who makes it ??? Where can I buy one
???


Do a google search for 'vibratory plow'. If you are in a big enough city you
might be able to rent one for a weekend. I haven't used one, but I bet it
would be great for radials.
