Here is a follow on question now that the answers to the
question, "What is the best antenna wire?", have dropped off.

Ladies and Gentlemen:

In your opinion, what is the best choice for the wire to be used
as radials for a vertical antenna.
(a). Where the radials will be buried.
(b). Where the radials will lie on the surface of the ground.
(c). Where the radials will be elevated (6" or more) above the
surface of the ground.

If you feel that the actual type of soil (clay, loam, sand, etc.)
will make a difference in your answer to (a) above, please
indicate in what way.

Thanks in advance for any responses.

Tod Olson, K0TO
