I received about 400 feet of TV cable Coax and would like to know how it
would work as ground radials????? I have a Butternut antenna that uses
radials.  I am having some yard work done and this would be a great time to
get these in the ground. If Coax is not good to use what would be? What
about bare copper as opposed to insulated wire??  Would there be a better
use for the TV Coax????

Thanks for the help,
John
