- That is one big array. He could probably hear himself 20-40 over as his signal circles the globe except for the deep nulls on the back side. Now how can I fit the same set up in my 30 x 80 back yard.

- If he only uses on side of the array, he has a 4/4/4 stack, not an uncommon operating setup. Then if he's trying to copy a marginal signal he can add the other side to improve the signal. If I had t
