Default WOW - New antenna ROCKS

wrote:

At the far end the antenna wire attaches to a balun which is mounted
directly to the ground rod. Then there is about 130 ft of RG-6 coax
buried about 5" underground. This travels to the house to a ground
block where this is another ground rod. Into the house and to the
reciever.

Hope I have it covered.

What you describe sounds like an excellent basic system, and under
appropriate circumstances may be all you ever need. I hope fervently
for the day to arrive when I have need for 130 feet of buried coax!
