Thanks to those who responded both on and off list to this.  I'm heading out 
at the weekend to take some measurements and see what can be done.  I also 
had a chat with an old friend, GW3NWS last night who also gave me some good 
ideas.

I should be able to get beverages out in a N/S and E/W direction subject to 
negotiating with my farmer friend next door.  The N/S orientation is a track 
that runs for about half a mile in pretty much a straight line so lots of 
potential there.  If I could only get rin of these powerlines, all my 
problems would be solved...well most of them anyway.

Looking forward to my first topband contact...30 years has been a long time 
to wait.  Rest of the kit here includes K2, FT1000MP abd various amps 
including 8877 for HF and GS35b for 6/2/70.

I will report progress.
