Thank you to all that responded to my call for ideas.

I'll keep the group informed as to what worked, what didn't and the final 
resolution.


Good DXing

Any suggestions on burying radials in the desert sands of Kingman AZ?  Radials 
placed on the surface just stay there and are constant tripping hazards.
The desert sand is like rock.  The top 1/4 inch is loose sand but below that 
it's like rock.  You vertually need a pick axe to loosen the sublayer.  One 
option is to pick axe a shallow trench for each radial in the desert sun, but 
tripping over the radials would be a better alternative.
Any suggestions?
I'm really getting tired of tripping over the radials of Jess, AI9L's radial 
field.
