Simple problem:  I want to make an RF ground system for my 1 kVA coil, 
but my yard is ALL rocks, making it impossible to force a copper pipe 
more than 8" into the ground.  This is a very real problem here in MA, 
and I need some advice.  Can I dig a trench and lay the pipe horizontally 
and get the desired results?  Exactly how much of an RF ground should I 
have for a 1kVA coil?

Thanks for reading,

Adam
