Need a good ground for these outdoor antenna wires.
Thought I would string a wire from the house to a tree and just hang it from a crotch in the tree with a counterweight on the end so that the tree movement from high winds does not break the wire.
Could use an insulator or pulley type system in the crotch.
Best to go east to west or north to south?
Could experiment I guess.
