Hi all: 

My Dad has about 500 feet of metal chain link fencing that my Brother gave him but he doesn't plan on using. 
Could I take a 4X66 foot piece and attach it to my radial plate and treat this as an additional 24 66 foot radials. 
This depends on if the links are 2 inches apart and the fence is 4 feet high when standing up as I think most fencing maybe., not including the cross links, which would probably add to the radials. 
We're also doing some landscaping and I'm tempted to ask for the hole roll and cut it into 4 or 5 4X66 foot screens and put this under my vertical for a radial field. 
I've also managed to get my hands on 2 10 foot lengths of 2 inch steel pipe to make a mast, considering a hex beam.
