[TowerTalk] ground rod tip

[Rob Atkinson, K5UJ]

most rods are machined at the ends to make them pointy, but usually one end 
is fairly blunt compared to the opposite end.   before driving in, take the 
end that is the most conical and file it down until it has a real point on 
it and drive that end in.   It will go through below grade junk such as 
bricks, and chunks of concrete a lot better and really makes the job easier 
if you are driving it in without a machine.
