When I was a child in South Carolina USA over 50 years ago, my friends and I built a 30 ft. wire antenna in a tree, then taped it to the antenna of one of our little children's walkie talkies. It increased transmission distance several blocks which was pretty cool. Then a helicopter from our nearby air force base flew over and we were convinced that the Feds had discovered our "illegal transmitter" and were coming after us so we ran inside a friend's home and hid for several hours, convinced we were doomed to life in prison. After waiting a prudent amount of time, we went back outside to play... but we never used the antenna again. Stock footage is fine with me. Anyone who criticizes you for using it. clearly doesn't understand what you're trying to accomplish. Keep up the great work!
