Anyone use one of the self-propelled tools that "pulls" sprinkler line for
burying radials? Trenchers cause a real mess and need back filing. Maybe you're
referring to a trencher that works like the puller.

Subject: Re: [TowerTalk] Next Radial - Question
I don't think a riding mower can bury them. A big tractor (40HP) with a
subsoiler can rip a rough trench. A trencher like they use for cable and
telephone lines can dig and bury at the same time but I don't know how well it
would work for your short distances: near the antenna you are likely to cut one
wire while doing the next.
