A short time ago someone indicated they had measured the resistance
on their ground rods.  How does one do this?  Can it be done with
something as simple as a digital volt meter?  What two points do
you measure between?  I don't live in a particularly sandy area but
have no idea if my ground rods (6) will actually help if lightning
should visit.

Thanks,
