Keep in mind this Sole purpose of a BC station is to get coverage of about 60
miles running 5KW day time and 1 KW night time with no fad and quality signal
not to work DX.
I read in some posts or on some web site that it does not matter if the ends
are tied to a ground rod or not. Note then ends not at the base of the
vertical.
My backyard is only 35 by 36 feet. You guys only think you have a small back
yard. Compare it with this one.
The City water pipe system sure works as the good ground I guess so does the
neighbors plumbing cause their house in only 8 feet from mine :-)
