Nothing new here. 70 years ago, when I was in high school and newly
licensed, I was befriended by W8NJL, who was chief of a 5kW daytimer on
1470 kHz a little more than a mile from my home. He had to replace his
ground system twice within a year after thieves dug it up. On one of
those occasions, he found it for sale on the street not far from the
station.
