      I recently picked up a cushcraft vertical antenna from someone
and i am now unsure as to what type of ground plane to use.
     Screen is out because i would have to dig up the lawn since it is 
mounted about 2 feet off the ground. but how many radials should i put in
?? how few can i get away with?? I have read some different books and have
come up with different answers . is there anyone out there who can fill me
in?
