Hello
I am planning a 160 M FCP and inverted L installation for the upcoming
winter season. The space available for both the inverted L and FCP are
limited and I have to make the installation neat to please the XYL.
I have a pressure treated board fence that can be used to support the FCP.
The fence runs along the back side of my lot (60 feet) and down the two
sides. I intend to manufacture pvc standoffs for the FCP that will be
mounted on the fence approximately 5 feet above ground.
As I see it, my FCP alternatives are as follows:
1) Mount the centre of FCP at a 90 degree intersection of two sides of the
fence. Each side of the FCP will be straight, but they will be oriented at
90 degrees to each other.
2) The FCP mounted on the 60 foot length of fence on the back side of my
lot with the last three feet of each side of the FCP wrapped on to the
adjacent sides of the fence, 90 degree bends at each end.
3) The FCP mounted on the same 60 foot length of fence but offset so that
one side of the FCP is in a straight plane and the end of the other is
folded at 90 degrees for the last 6 feet.
I would appreciate any comments from the group on which of these
alternatives will offer the best FCP performance.
Thanks and 73
