Default Need help... End-fed, long wire or ????

OK.... so work with the ignorant here.. I've never used anything other than
my trusty dipole/folded dipoles...
How do I put in radials under a longwire?? I'm kind of on a cliff so not
sure where I could do any digging back there...

A good website for the longwire user would be fantastic and I could just
research it.
thanks!
Woody

Thread a longwire through the trees... Have a quarter wave radial on
the ground for each band you intend to operate - this is the RF
counterpoise for the antenna tuner so it doesn't bite your fingers...
Operate and enjoy.. On a ridge as you describe, it should work just
fine...
