About the same as putting a 20M dipole 2-3feet above the ground.  Maybe 
worse.    I or someone else could put it in EZNEC and try to see what 
numbers it produces.  Problems with being so close to the ground (in 
terms of wavelength) is most of the simulators are not able to give 
accurate answers.
