Yes, when I was living in the UK as a kid I saw the end result of a 6 x 4 x 4 trench cave in, I think ground water pressure being the problem, the trench had been shored up with plywood and cross bra

I've got an LM-354HDSP which has the same base/base requirements as the LM-374. I talked with Karl about the hole requirement since a high water table at my QTH makes the spec'ed base difficult. (At

Too many die in low trenches and holes. If the soil is above your hips, and you bend down and are covered in a wall collapse, you may die. Others have. It's like climbing without a belt. http://www.c

I would like you to consider this as cost effective: let's say it cost you $300 to dig the hole. The cost of a funeral is somewhere between $6,000 and $30,000! The emotional trauma to the family I do

It depends. What's your soil like? if it collapses, how deep will you be buried? If you're buried waist deep, you just have to wait til someone comes to dig you out (or you can dig yourself out with

Better yet, just fill the hole with concrete. It's cheaper than a funeral. Square up the part showing above ground, no one will see whats below it. 73, Dick, W1KSZ ___________________________________
