hello LF Friends (and others too),
Those of us who were in October 1999 at Old Windsor during the
HF/IOTA/LF Conference, will recall that we strung a fairly long
antenna above two huge cedar trees. Yet our ground was simply a piece
of wire running from the transmitter site to some lightning-rod
downlead, certainly not an elaborate ground system...
And we immediately started long distance QSOs' :-)

Dear LF Group,
Was very interested to read G3LDO's piece about antenna
comparisons - it seems that the most important factor for DX
operation on 136kHz may ultimately be the ground, rather than the
antenna.
