Modeling I found that comparing a full-bore ground system (120
half-wavelength radials) to a single eight-foot ground rod (average
ground) the difference reported was about 1 dB.

Hi Danny,

I made the same comparison at 40M. The difference between 120
(quarterwave) radials and 1 amounts to 0.1dB Clip that one down by a
tenth and the difference climbs to an astronomical 0.3dB.
