Re: Stupid Question Involving Sheds
bolt the aerial and it's mount to a piece of metal and run 4 9foot pieces of
wire from each corner of the metal plate.. failing that just buy a ground plane kit, £7 from knights or £10 on fleabay from yeomanselectronics. bolt aerial mount to kit and stand on roof of shed, nail it down so it don't get nicked..!!
