So, finally, It is done. 20 ft above the grade, 60 ft in total length, 2 pieces at 30 ft each coming to the central insulator, connected to the coax, one end to the center, another to the shield. At the set- tried the center wire to the "A", shield to the "G". Reception is poor, worse, than 15 ft straight wire. When both (center and shield) connected together just before connecting to "A"- reception is as good as my 25 ft wire hanging on the bush, albeit the stations coming in quite louder.But selection is still the same.Is anything wrong? I have been getting plenty of stations prior to that, but thought the new contraption will provide even better results.
