Question re: FC-40 and portable antenna


gkulin
 

Good morning,

I am going off to visit my parents in Alberta next month and
thinking of bringing my FT-857 and FC-40 with me. I am planning on
using one of the electric fences as an antenna. (The fence is not
energized, since no cattle are using this field) The fence is
approximately 300 m (1000 ft+) approximately 60 cm (2 ft) off the
ground and terminated to the ground at the far end. My question is if
this would be a viable antenna system? Is there anything I should look
out for?
