>From ON4UN's Low-Band DXing regarding ground enhancements using mesh
screening...   "Steel is a very poor conductor at RF"

You may also want to look up WB0JGP's article on ground screens from Aug

As an engineer, steel, even galvanized steel, corrodes away pretty quick in
most soils (unless cathodically protected).
