I'll be moving my rig to a second floor OP here soon, I've always been
at/below ground level with a short run to a ground rod. I'm only
running a trap dipole nowdays and I don't want to get into the mess of
a counterpoise. Can I/will I get an acceptable ground by running a
ground strap to a ground rod? I imagine that a lot of folks are doing
this - is there any advice regarding getting it grounded from this
height?

tnx - Mark/n0lf
