I have two ground rods I am thinking about moving to another location, is
this practical or would it be easier to just poundem in the ground and buy
new rods....does anyone have an easy method for taking the rods out of the
ground...I am not interested in building any equipment to do this removal
project...please advise..thanks..Gary, K8BY


Tie a piece of chain around them and pull them loose with a car jack. Works
like a charm. You normally just have to get them a little loose and the
rest is easy. I've done it a few times with 10 ft copper clad steel rods.
