Dear list-

Group, not list....

My thought is to use a fiberglass pole at a 45deg angle to hold a
weighted antenna line off from the cliff face, although some locations
even have pretty good overhangs. Then we could use either an inverted-
L configuration, running feedline along the support pole and bringing
the horizontal part up to a tree near the edge, or just go with a
really long end-fed antenna.

Hi Ross,

Put a good weight on it, and spool out over the edge until you achieve
lowest SWR for your frequency. The higher the cliff, the lower the
frequency you can accomodate. Think of it as an inverse balloon or -
a Lead Zepp.

What are you going to do about ground?
