- I suggest Absolute heresy;
- make Several antennas,
one of the the antenna about 200 or so feet long.
going any old direction !

This way, you can switch between antennas when the 50 footer barely picks up,
or fails to pick up a signal

Play !

My random wire is at about fifty feet since this is the end of my lot. Would
anything positive come from lengthening it another fifty feet at a ninety
degree angle? Just curious since I am getting myself a used R8 or possibly
an R75 in the next few weeks and I want to put up the most wire possible. My
girlfriend shakes her head in disbelief.
