It doesn't require a 8' copper rod to get a decent ground connection. I use a Yamaha 2000 Gen and ground it with a really long aluminum tent spike.
As an EE, can you tell me the difference in the "ground potential" by sticking a really long aluminum tent spike in 8" of Louisiana gumbo mud vs sticking it in 8" of really dry Nevada sand?
