Topband: Detuning tower

In edition 2 ON4UN's Low-Band DXing page 11-22 he provides a hint of
using the MFJ 931 artificial ground

and states that it can be a tool for detuning a tower.  Is the use of
this device the same as the W8JI sectionalizing method

of a structure, i.e. one tunes for Maximum Current on the 931 meter in
the sectional dropwire? If so, this would seem like a quick method to

determine more robust fixed component values.


Appreciate any advice on if I have correctly described the use of the
device above.


Brad
