Don't bury them any deeper than necessary. Lying on top of the ground is better. Dirt is not a good antenna element. Electric fence wire is adequate and cheap. I use it right on the surface, as you say. It's a bit springy so you may have to work it to straighten it, though. -- Dave Oldridge+ ICQ 1800667 |
