Very good advice, Irv

If you plan to be at your QTH for a while, it's not difficult to
lay untuned radials along the ground, or bury them down a half inch
or so with a pizza cutter. I laid mine in the grass and after a
couple of months you don't even see them anymore -- the mower goes
right over them. If you are concerned, you can nail them down
using hairpins. They not only serve as a great base for a vertical,
but they also provide a very good rf ground. They don't have to be
any special length -- its the quantity that counts.
