Hello Chris,

Thanks for quick reply, Wolf!

But then propagation from a mf tx on a ship on sea should be worse then from 
land?
Interesting theory.. never thought about that... maybe because the ship's metal body, floating in a highly conductive (saltwater) medium is a better counterpoise than we can dream of, and the direct surroundings around the antenna are conductive but not lossy.

I remember a suggestion in 'Rothammel's Antennenbuch' to enrich the soil with copper sufate (!) which I certainly don't recommend. Not even pouring kilograms of gritting salt in the garden around the antenna. The experiment would be interesting, but has unwanted side effects ("look what you've done to my pretty flowers"..) !

Cheers,
  Wolf .
