Five years ago, in the general Raleigh area, a number of us did exactly as
you propose. We all used as standard a 151 foot (46 meters) dipole of
insulated wire laying on the ground, spreading out for readings in quite
some number of places across the region. We were looking for velocity
factor, but
Hi Rick et al,
Just reminds me of 3Y0X from Peter 1 Island in 2006.
They used a 3 el yagi laying on the ice and had a VFB sig on 160 ...but
calculations were made before they went to this distant QTH.
Nice memory!

Is there some way you could lay a half wave
dipole on the ground and measure the resonant
frequency and radiation resistance vs the
known free space values, and convert this to
ground conductance and permittivity? Perhaps
model it in some version of NEC and play with
the ground constants until th
Another website with a measurement tool:

I did not yet try this or N6LF's system.

Thanks Jim
I will look at N6LF website, I want to measure my soil conditions
