It touched the tower. That's only at 1 Mhz.

Interesting Mike and it reminds me of a safety bulletin
We read last week. A man decided he wanted to
Steal some copper wire from a sub-station. So
He began cutting the strands of the MAIN ground
Off or one of them anyway.....right up until the time
He became the conductor for the station ground.
They had to pick him up in pieces, not a pretty
Site. Of course 1Mhz Rf isn't in the same category
As a substation transformer but still interesting stuff.
