Re: [TowerTalk] Install ground rod

Agree that bigger is quicker. I've used three different sized rotary hammers 
into clay soil with about 45 min for the smallest hammer to 5-7 min for the 
largest. Largest size might be available for rent locally and will be a 
definite time-saver.Bill K9GN

[TowerTalk] Install ground rod SDS hammer drill with the ground rod bit. Either 
Plus or Max version of the drill will work. After I got an SDS-Plus, the time
