Hi Rich, here is an idea that I have used for some time now involving using your phone landline. At my house there are 4 wires inside the phone line, the red and green are the ones used to operate the phone, the other 2 are dead, I suppose they are there if you decided to have a 2nd phone with different number, not sure. Anyway, I have used those 2 extra wires to connect to my radio. My phone line runs up the side of my house and then across to phone company pole. So now I have a long wore antenna that is approximately 20’ high and 60’ long and it works great. Another advantage to this setup is I can put my radio in any room where there is a phone Jack and plug into it and have instant long wire antenna!
