Antenna earth stakes - a tricky one!

: .... foot radial, counterpoise et al. A good, deep ground rod in reasonably moist soil will turn the ground terminal on your radio into a true zero voltage reference point and stop allowing your antenna and A simple proposition for sure... but if it was true, why does the rod need to be 8' long? The only way that the ground terminal is a 'true zero voltage reference point' wrt the larger ground mass at RF is that if the connection to the ground mass is of zero length, and that isn't true either above or below the ground.
