Bob,

My soil conductivity is quite poor here (granite with a lot of "loam" that falls from my redwoods), but my spaced VE3DO loops work well. They are home brew, easy to build.

Hi Ed,

Thank you for that info.  My beverages, aka "Tree-catchers", worked well in the past but they were excruciating to maintain constantly.  Then when the Deer Tick population exploded about 20 years ago, it became hazardous.  I have been avoiding that ever since but realize that I may have no choice except to reconsider.
