Diagram of my earth electrode antenna for 500kHz and sub-9kHz

This is a hand drawn diagram of my earth electrode antenna for 500kHz and sub-9kHz. On 500kHz WSPR this has managed to TX a signal as far as G0KTN who is 210kms away when using my 5W QRP transverter. Sub 9kHz my 4W TX is audible by ear at 0.5km range on an 80cm loop.  This is a totally "stealth" antenna that is not visible at all to anyone looking at the property.

How about crossing a few fences and connecting to a neighbours radiators. That would increase your loop size.
