Is anyone using multiple ground rods bonded together? Is anyone using a well that is drilled into the water table? Has anyone used sheets of metal buried vertically in the ground as a earth ground? I am curious, because i know on the lower ham bands 160 - 40 meter a multiple ground rod system or a water well is a must for a good ground system to be effective.
