Описание к видео Antenna Counterpoise, misconceptions and mistakes with building a rat tail

In this, we discuss some common procedures that seem to be recommended in a plethora of videos extolling the virtues of counterpoise, be it called "rat tail", "tiger tail" etc.

Counterpoise is a good idea, and it works, but works best when done properly.
