Any thoughts on the use of a chain link fence as an antenna? I have one
surrounding about an acre, but every ten feet or so a post is set in the
ground, as is typical for a fence. Probably an excellent ground, but any
hope of using it for the actual antenna?

The fence can be used as a ground for a vertical. fed with balanced line works most bands, second way would be stick a mobile multiband Hustler or other resonators use the fence as a ground.ideally if you have a remotely adjustable coil like a screwdriver mobile antenna stick it somewhere on the fence works great. I wish the fence lays flat on the ground it would work super but then its no lomger a fence. Var N6DBH
