Yes, this will be pushing against an inverted L. What I should have mentioned is that I can only have a radial field in about a 90-110 degree arc (west through a little east of north, and maybe 1 or

Hi all, My L goes up tomorrow (hopefully!), followed shortly by my radial "field." Other than putting my chiropractor on speed-dial, this afternoon I bought a 500' roll of #14 THHN at Home Despot. Wh
