I use to be a few km from where you work on Little Saanich Mountain. I used a 3' passive loop and a 300' random wire terminated at about 75' above ground. In September 1976, the dial was alive with TP's in the AM and TA's in the PM. >From Little Saanich Mountain you can see water - so that is hopeful. So this - take your Eton E1 and use it barefoot and forget about wires. When you run a wire you are only going to boost all the local signals and run the risk of swamping all the DX. -- ..........................................................................................
