? MF/HF current penetrates only a few inches into garden-variety soil,
so conductors buried deeper than that are about as beneficial as teats on
a boar hog. Soft copper tubing buried horizontally just under the
surface seems to present a low R at MF/HF. However, with a beverage, the
RF-resistance of the ground (at the termination-end) simply becomes part
of the terminating resistance, so ground R matters not a lot. The
feed-end is another matter.
