[TowerTalk] Ground Radials Insulated or Not

[Gary Schafer]

Hi John,

Don't know what the modeling programs say about it but I can tell you 
that although it may sound like an impressive ground it is not.
It gets too long and the inductance gets too high to be as effective as 
it may seem it would be. You need other grounds in addition. For rf or 
lightning you need more ground rods or radials.
