Moved the vertical to the land. The noise is now complete gone.
I made a temporary base from old wood. I want to see how I have to make it that I can quickly lay down the verticals. I have already learned the wooden poles have to become longer otherwise the pvc pipe will break. I connected the vertical to the radio and compared it to the R8. I was impressed. Yesterday when the vertical was on the fence the R8 was far better because off the noise but now it is the other way around.

I have made a vertical for 40m. it is an prototype to see how it working and what I have to change when I need 4 of these for my for square. I mounted it next to the shack at the fence. At this place it picks up a lot of noise from the house and the shack. Will move it to the land soon. To connect the coax and the radials I made a connection box. I think that when engendering is finished I will fill the box with resin.
