Remembering the famous line about “The best made plans of mice and men often go astray” here is what I hope will happen this weekend…
Saturday early morning or Sunday early morning I hope to get the weighted line over a tree branch in my front yard. This will allow me to get the end of my Inverted “L” about 10 feet higher than it is now. This will make the “L” part of the antenna about 30 feet above ground compared to the 21 feet (approx) that it is now. Seeing that my agreement with my landlord about antennas is “out of sight and out of mind” as I am going to be working in front of my gardenhome rather than in the obscurity of my back yard I have to find a time when there are not as many prying eyes watching the fool with the rope…
I have an outside hope that once I get the antenna up that little bit higher either my receive will improve with the added altitude or because I will be moving my antenna higher and hopefully further away from whatever is causing my noise level…
On Saturday afternoon I plan to ride over to the local A Channel Studios to show my support of local television. To see what I am talking about please follow this link…
Saturday evening will be spent recovering from the Saturday afternoon Bike Ride and then on Sunday I think an afternoon in the park might be a fun thing to do…
Hoping all will happen as planned…
