Now it's time for some fireside "what if" discussions: don't  
immediately worry about the mechanics of this idea, but about the  
electric feasability.

Could the tower/signal ground be capacitively coupled to the variable  
height water level found in tidewater stations? Capacitively coupled  
in a manner similar to the "mag-mount" HF/VHF/UHF mobile antennas/

Ok, gentlemen, start your engines, let's see what you folks who know  
this stuff think.
