Topband: RBOG routing

[Mike Waters]

Jim,

Here's a few questions for you, that the BOG experts here are going to want
to know.

How sharp are the angle changes? Will it turn sharply, but then sharply
turn back to its average angle?

How close to the fence, and for how great a distance?

Is the tower resonant on the bands you want to listen to on the reversible
BOG? And how close and tall is it?

As for radial staples, I doubt if they would hurt. But you may get better
results if it just lays on the undergrowth.

I have little experience with a BOG. Only elevated Beverages.

73, Mike
