Now, having spent some time installing ground radials, I have to ask:
how'd they do that?

They probably did it the same way it was done for another radio station
in the Puget Sound area - secured an Army Corps permit to head out in a
boat with a spool of copper at slack tide in the morning (over several
days) and drop the copper end over the side of the boat attached to a
cement block.

Interesting. May have been easier than the old plowing it in method, maybe
not. But certainly more interesting.
