I am a radio broadcast engineer (for, um, some 3 decades now), and
one of the people on one of the broadcast engineering forums has secured
permission to post a copy of a study on ground systems done in 1957.
This is good reading, and will help fuel the fire of antenna debating in
ham radio!
The direct link is :

(watch the wrap)
And the mans web site with the link is:

p.s., this is a copy of RF's email (Thats Richard Fry!)
**************
After some "back and forth," IEEE just gave me permission to post the
benchmark 1937 paper by Brown, Lewis and Epstein about MW ground systems.
Quite a few on RT and BC asked me earlier for this, but I had to hold
off until it was possible. Now I hope all those who asked will see this
posting eventually, and view/download it from the link below. There are
some restrictions on its use, as shown in the file.
The file is about 3.3 megs, so a fast connection will help.
