[IRCA] antennas on unowned land

["Bob Young" <youngbob53@xxxxxxx>]

I recently moved to another apt with lots of woods behind it, in fact it's a 
jungle, very hard to put up wires but I asked the two neighbors behind me on 
another street who owned the land if they minded me putting up some wire in 
their trees, both were very nice a about it and said yes, although one was 
skeptical and I assured him that it would not cause any inteference to his 
TV or radios etc. So I now have two 400' LW's up and on side I can run a 
couple of hundred more feet if I want. Other places I have lived I have just 
made sure I did most of the work at twilight time because once their up 
there they are pretty hard to see unless you are looking for them. I use 
black stranded # 14 THHN wire, expensive but strong.
