GE/GA/GM all,

es mni tnx fr all answers!

My new design for that 6 acres horseground looks like:

http://www.df9ox.com/pics/_temp/GE_Jtorf_kpl_04.jpg

I decided to cover every 30deg, but some beverages are bi-directional or unidirectional 
via a switched relais. Relais-voltages via bev-wire with chokes.
It is not possible to reach the north part of the lot with coax.
Also it is not possible to go with 2 wire Bevs in practice.
It is a temporary installation, I have to bring it down in some hours (in spring).

- Average high of each bev will be 1m (3ft).
- Crossing-points will be realized with 0.3m/1ft between wires.
- Fx are feedpoints.
- V-Fx are possible extensions. Not sure abt relization, because they are running over 
community ground; I have to make that parts "invisible".
- ground-rods will be 1.2m (4ft) deep; galvanizised steel or copper (marshy ground here, 
but no salt water).
- I will made the whole installation visible for children and deers with coloured 
bands/stripes. Bev-wire will be 0.6mm Cu parallel to that lines, some km are in stock.

Red point middle/left is my 26m vertical with 120 times 20 radials.



Questions are:

1.  Has winding of the wire around a nail/screw/bolt/plastc-tongue any influence on the 
bev?

2.  Did I make mistakes in my construction?
