Jim,

Great news.  Isn't it amazing what a case of beer can accomplish. 8-)

The construction crew ran a water pipe under my road today so I can hook up 
to county water.  Since the main water main was on the other side of the 
road they used a air-pressured "torpedo" to push through a horizontal hole 
for the copper tube to go through, about six feet down.  All it took was a 
case of beer and they kindly tied a coax to the tube, so now I have the 
ability to run a longwire on the other side of the road where there is 
endless farm acreage.  They even hid it just at the edge of the tree line so 
the actual farm owner won't see it or be vulnerable to town lawn mowing. I 
think this is a once in a lifetime opportunity.  I was glad to be home today 
to make this happen.
