Hi RHF
The actual longwire start is about 40 foot high, the centre of the V is
about 35 feet and the end of the V is about 40 foot ( all in all it is
about 80 foot long overall) it is connected to a balun/transformer, then I
have coax cable conected to the balun with a very thick earthwire going
from the balun and receiver to ground (a 8 foot underground spike.

- I forgot to mention it is in a V shape, not a L shape,
- with both sides of the V at 45 degrees to each other.

Vangellis,
What does the Balun 'connect' to the "V" Wire ?

[ ] At the Point {Bend} of the "V"
