| Hi Dave, 
 I had a two wire Beverage that lost it's directivity.  This after I moved 
the far end so the Plow would not push Snow over it. After a lot of work I 
found the end of a Barbed Wire fence was very near the new ground rod about 
6 inches below the surface. This fence was above ground for about 1/2 mile 
over an old stone wall. It some how got under ground when the road way went 
in. This old wire put a lot of noise and signal into the new ground rod.

 "There is a standard barbed wire fence going by less than 10' away,
with normal T-posts.  Would hooking to it as a ground be of any use? "
