[TowerTalk] radial geometry

[Mike & Coreen Smith]

I live in a mini-home, sitting on huge 10x10 timbers, so I simply snaked the
wire underneath :-)
Even if I lived in a house with a full basement, I wouldn't think twice
about somehow snaking wire around my walkways
and even tying into existing ground rods, well casings, and getting at least
1 wire "through" the house.
I have all that + wires going through my wifes gardens, under the driveway,
etc.......

More is better!
