   Are we discussing lousy soil or lossy soil?

   NVIS operations depends on something conductive below a low antenna 
that aims the signal straight up like a two element beam, usually 
supplied by a second wire a foot above the dirt and grass.
   NVIS is only effective on 160, 80 and sometimes 40 meters.
