[BC] Long Wire

[Scott Bailey]

Andy,
  Get some good picture of this!  I loved to see what you have do. We had some unipole wires come loose off out tower last year and we could have stayed on with what you are doing. I'm sure the wire feeds into an ATU. I love to have it for my records in case we get in that situaation again!

Thanks,
    Scott

Unconventional maybe? Works - but not nearly as well as the 1/4 vertical tower
