I have access to a 65' water well that I could install a radial in. This
is sulfur water and the conductivity is quiet high (per the lab
analysis). I was wondering if this would make a good ground system for a
vertical on 160/75/40. I am sitting on 6' of sandy loam which is sitting
on solid limestone bedrock. I've heard of people wanting to use the well
casing or tubing, but I would like to install a copper wire. Any
comments, suggestions or debate welcome


It makes an excellent *safety* ground. Not much in the way of a
radial though.
