My local farm supply store has rolls of welded steel wire mesh (galvanized) with 2 x 4 inch openings, for what seems like a pretty reasonable price per square foot. I am tempted to use crossed strips

Hmm.. my first thought is "try it and see" because it's hard to predict what this will work like.. Here's some thoughts though: steel is not a particularly good conductor, but on the other hand it's

They may not be perfect, but they do help. I use that stuff under my 80m 4-square... even with the radials raised up 10' putting 150' of that stuff under each vertical was still a measurable change t

The question I would have is whether you'd be better spending money on copper wire for radials than spending it on steel mesh. Obviously, if one has a cheap source for either, than that might push yo

Looking over Laport (since it was just mentioned) "...Meshes of crossed wires, which were once widely used, should not be used with vertical radiators, because the return paths are not direct and edd

When placed on, or below, dirt galvanized wire rusts away pretty fast here in Louisiana. After a year or two I wouldn't want to be depending on it for anything important. Using copper wire might seem

THIS thread is about the galvanized wire fence used to enhance a vertical antenna ground screen. There is a different thread(simply titled 'Wire Mesh') talking about the welded concrete reinforcement
