Hiya...

One of my two antennas is a home brew 200 ft random wire antenna. It's well
grounded and also makes use of a coax feed and an ICE-180 matching
transformer. Most importantly, it's set up and folded more like a piece of
modern art rather then an antenna :-).


Where's the connection from the antenna to the matching transformer? I
see the end of the wire connected to an insulator on the chimney but
where's the other end (beginning) of the antenna wire that should be
connected to the ICE-180? Also, if the antenna wire is a 200-ft
continuous length, I don't see what path it takes to make the 'X'
pattern. It looks like two seperate doubled wires crossing over the
chimney top but not part of a continuous length of wire. It would be
helpful if you added some arrows to show the path of the wire as you
constructed it.
