Hello Gary Ok this could take two emails to do this, Here is a description
of the garden it is 35FT long and 17.6 FT wide, so you can see not much
chance of a good size antenna. however try and picture this, starting from
the bottom of the garden left hand side starts the wire going across the
garden to the right hand side, now from here it goes diagonally to the
back wall of the house where it will terminate, the SGC is at the bottom of
the garden where the wire starts, the total length is seventy feet. I am
however going to get a vertical antenna made by Diamond the CP 6.
