If it is 5 feet high and 50 feet away... I would consider the fence to be a
minor enhancement in ground conductivity 50 feet out :-).
I don't think it's at all obvious that you need to move it.

Subject: Topband: Needed: Rule of Thumb
I have a 5' high chain link fence located 50' from where I would like to put
up an 80M vertical. Obviously, I need to move the fence and have plenty of
room to move it. On the other hand, I want to minimize the distance I move the
fence due to the expense.
Is there a rule of thumb about how far away objects should be located to
prevent interference with the radiation pattern of a vertical?
Thanks for your help.
Wayne, KK6BT
