TopBand: trees

[W7lr@aol.com]

Been reading about trees on this reflector. While in Thailand (as HS1L) from
63 to 65 our research lab did some tests on using trees as antennas.  They
did work - but not great!  I expect that Stanford Research Institute in
Menlo Park CA has reports on those efforts if one wanted to pursue it.
Wire, aluminum and pipe work better.  73 Bob W7LR
