How's that Eavesdropper working for you?
Not sure! I haven't completed the installation yet. It is in the air, and has
been for a while, but I've not completed the coax run yet.

I was thinking about doing it today, but I had a lot of stuff to take care of
yesterday and my back she no feel too good.

Perhaps tomorrow.

One thing I forgot to add was that my neighbour was up on a job in Rockford, MI
doing some heating and cooling work and he spied a nice aluminium flagpole that
was being thrown away due to some storm damage at the base of it.

We cut off the bad part, (about 1 foot) and it's still 22' long. Now if I sink it
2-3' into the ground in a suitable piece of pipe I'll have a nice free-standing
center support for the Eavesdropper.


Would you really want a 22 foot metal center support? Although it may
be one of the world's most extravagant ground lugs...there is that whole
lightning thing.....

I am not too sure Mr.Maus understands about roaches and beer.

Sure, why not. My scanner antenna is on a metal mast a bit higher than that.

Not hit... Yet!

Oh, well then, screw it. Mount it high and solid, and put a US ensign
atop, with a flood for night time.

It'll be strictly for the antenna once I get going on that part of the project. But if I
finally decide I'm not happy with the Eavesdropper then I'll either come up with another
antenna project or just use it for a flagpole.

Be sure to put a "good" lightning ground unit on the lead!

You might want to consider using it as a vertical antenna. It would
complement your existing horizontal antennas.
