*sigh*

well that did not seem to work.
I am being blown out by my local AM station.
But I am still pretty dead on all the other AM stations. I cannot pick more
than say 3 or so. Before it was about the same.

But I all I seem to have done is increase the noise!

I have some spurious interference every 60-70 Khz. This is from my power I
am assuming. How do I get rid of it?

I have it hooked up to about 50 foot of speaker wire.

Which is in turn soldered to the center lead on my coax. The coax then goes
into my reciever. Am I missing something?

Thanks!

I havea wooden fence that I can attach this wire to. Can I staple it up
with metal staples?

Thanks!

Hi, I am going ot setup my own random/longwire.

I have alread about 50 feet of 50 Ohm RG-6 for the lead in.


I have about 50 feet of 2 conductor speaker wire, and about 200 feet of

4
conducter telephone wire.

First am I going to need a 9:1 transformer to make this work? My input

is
supposed to be 50 Ohm.


Is a sloper omni directional? If not which end goes to what area I want

to
listen to?

Thanks!
Ant
