Tame the predictable mast currents found in any j-pole antenna grounding conductive mast using a simple stub. Shown is empirical evidence why this is a problem and a very simple solution all future grounded j-pole antennas should incorporate.
Ground Rods… so easy a pre-teen can do it. Presented is a method learned from other hams on how to install a ground rod with minimal or no hammering. Using a watering can, even children can sink an 8 foot ground rod into the ground. All it takes is water and time.
