Let's keep "noodling" this one - we might be on to something.
Given:
A. Horizontal loop antennas are known for their effectiveness.
B. Many hams have fenced yards to keep various critters out.
C. A number of said hams are interested in beacon operation.
Therefore:
I suggest a combination low horizontal loop/electric fence, made hot
with RF
from a beacon TX (older Ten-Tec rig, got to keep this on topic!) The only
caveat would be a need for SWR protection when said critter comes in contact
with the hot wire. For example: neighbor's pooch discovers it can copy
CW: "AroooYipYipAroooYip AroooYipYipYip AroooYipAroooYip AroooYip...."
I'll go crawl back under my rock now HI HI!!
