Subject:      Re: swimming pool ground

They came, they measured, and they dug a great big mother of a hole 
in my back yard in about 4 hours!  I spoke to the electrician yesterday 
and he said that the entire pool (comprising the metal pool wall and the 
metal walkway supports, the concrete rebar, and the filter pump and 
light)  will all be tied to my house ground.  Does this mean that I will  
not be able to use the pool as an RF ground since it won't be isolated 
from the rest of the house wiring?  Am I back to pounding in my copper 
tubing?  It would be a shame to have this big thing out there and not be 
able to use it, but I don't want to toast my household electronics when I 
work up to pole-pig size.
