On that 70" wire you use, how long have you used that specific antenna
setup?

I've been using that since I moved here in 2001. It is transformer matched and
the coax is buried, same as the 200' wire.

What did you use before that?

I used pretty much the same 70' wire and various inverted vee's.

And, up until 5 or 6 years ago I had access a few times a year to a nice setup
that featured 6 pretty much permanent beverages from 300 to 700 feet or so in a
very quiet location.

Beginning in late October I've begun experiencing some noise here that pretty much
makes the 200' wire useless. The noise did take about a two week break right about
Radio St. Helena time but then returned.

I'll have to get out one of these days when the weather improves and see if I can
locate the source and let our local BPW know.
