In "real" soil perhaps but in Florida sugar sand?

Seriously, the electrician-installed galvanized are
in the nearest circumstance about 12" from the copper,
do I really risk a problem?

I can group the ground rods so those in close proximity
are all galvanize.

The tower base is 40+ feet from the shared house ground
system so I'd guess they are irrelevant to the "battery"
scenario.
