NR1R has used such a style of antenna . He has a fenced in yard in a
suburban area and stapled the wire to the underside of the woodhorizontal
members. It has no directionality, but it is a quiet listening antenna,
which can sometimes provide a better signal to noise ratio than the
transmit antenna. -- Fred K1VR
