If the big aluminum foil ears on a whip antenna doesn't help, what
about those trailing wire antenna's that are trailed back behing the
aircraft a good distance. I've seen them on Aero Commanders (500
series). I might hook up a spool of wire and one of those drag devices
that pull it out the tail of the airplane and trail it back a quarter
of a mile or so. I could have enormous transmitting ability. Make a
weak radio a super radio. I wonder if it would attract lightening
though.
