*** If you elevate it, it's no longer a BOG, it's a beverage, and the
loss effects of being on the ground are reduced. But none of thaqt is
an option, really, there is not tall grass for us, and running above
ground eliminates the 'stealth' aspect of it. And for a one-weekend
thing, I'm just as happy not to be running out 3000 feet or so of wire ;-}
