Hi,

In my limited garden I can get away with an 17 high inverted-L with 2 very
bent elevated radials and very odd angles. One of them in the farmers field.

It has certainly got me out but I have been told if I sick some copper rods
down at the base and connect to the radials (coax shield and radials) this
is not going to be beneficial.

This seems counter-intuitive.

Before I get digging (cos I got to try it anyway and take some analyser
readings) can anyone comment on this?
