"Brian" wrote in message ink.net... I'm getting ready to take down my antenna for my move next week, and I'd like to take my ground rod with me as well, but I'm not sure if it would just be a big deal that I'd probably just as well avoid. Anyone ever pulled one up? Should I just forget it about it and get a new one? Just curious. -Brian Ground rods are cheap. Why overwork yourself trying to pull it out of the ground? Mine is six feet in and it would be a bear to get out? -- 73 and good DXing. Brian ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ A lot of radios and 100' of rusty wire!

I put a soak hose by mine for an hour or so and then put on a pair of
leather gloves and pulled it right out, twisting and wiggling it as I did so and it was easy once the ground was damp. "Brian Hill" wrote in message ... "Brian" wrote in message ink.net...

You would have to spend at least $20 in labor and water to remove my rod and I can buy another for $8-10 at the supply house. My 2c -- 73 and good DXing.
