Re: [IRCA] steel wire fence in Venice, CA (near Los Angeles)

[Nick Hall-Patch <nhp@xxxxxxxx>]

Some unknowns here, Aaron...is it a single wire on supports?  A "wire 
fence" is a grid of wires in many people's minds, and that's mostly a 
random chunk of metal as far as being a radio antenna.   If it is a 
single wire on supports, are the supports non-conductive?

Because the bike path is parallel to the salt water, your Beverage 
effect may be quite compromised by the water's electrical 
conductivity.    I suspect you might  just get extra signal strength 
without much directional effect.    As for hooking up to it, that 
would depend on what sort of radio you're using.   How would you hook 
up a random wire to that radio?   That might be a good starting point.

Good luck with this,

Nick
