Actually, I have seen pvc  and plastic casing these days in wells, you 
just have to look and see.  Believe it or not, I don't have a ground on 
my station, I know I should, but seems like every time I start grounding 
stuff I get all kinds of ground loops, and I don't have a good way to 
get out side to aground without running a long wire.  One trick, if you 
have to do that is use a piece of coax, center is the wire from rig to 
ground rod and take shield on each end to that center with a .001 
capacitor.  Keeps the ground wire from acting like an antenna.
