I've never been to Frenchburg, though I've been to Natural Bridge a
couple of times. Very scenic out that way.

The Red River Gorge wilderness area is very close to Natural Bridge.
If you are willing to hike a few miles you can get awy from power
lines,
people and their noisy cars.

With a DX398, or 2, and 2 roughly equal length pices of 50 to 100 feet
of wire, and some nylon monofilimanet you can have a wonderfull easy
mini DX party.
While the ridges are best, even the valleys are very good.

By using two roughly equal wire onteh DX398 we have found the addional
wire makes singals several "S" units stronger.

Not a dipole, but more as a counter-poise.

Late fall and early spring are our favorite times.
Fewer ticks and no crowds

Even Natural Bridge is great in the off season.
Just don't string an antenna on the brdige.
