Well, he tried the wire outside the window so it is no longer the concrete, I guess.

Palm Coast has many tall straight pines so a well-trained squirrel can get the wire all the way up! Icon_smile

Oh, and this radio does use a transformer. Which is of course still not a reason to stop being careful.
