[TowerTalk] Vertical in pond

I'm not sure that this is exactly analagous, but I have a tri-band vertical 
mounted right at the edge of a reasonably large lake (~0.5km x 20km). I found 
that that dramatically improved its performance compared to mounting it 100m 
away. The improvement was at least 10dB which changed it from being a waste of 
time to a useful second antenna - and the radial system (lots) was identical in 
each case.
