[Antennas] MFJ Artificial Ground

[Bill Marx]

What is the groups experience if any, with the MFJ Artificial Ground. I want to run a wire outside an apartment and for the ground
inside, use the device they sell. I am interested in hearing how others have used. it. I have read the instructions.

Is it really necessary? I can always run a counterpoise wire inside. I will be using a manual tuner. I have an AH-4 available but
think it is overkill for this.

I tried a Hustler system but even with a decent ground to the radiator heating system it was barely usable.
Your thoughts?
