Years ago, when I was fueled by 807s, a few of us erected a long wire
antenna that went the length of the bridge and then went off to a tree limb 
above my parked car.

I had a set of Morrow Twins that had NEVER made a contact from my car...so we 
tried 75 meters.....Managed to:

Drink too many more 807s,
Have a few QSOs,
Run out of gas,
Explain to the policeman that found us that stringing antennae was perfectly 
normal.

Might try it again, sans the 807s and the Morrow twins.
