I would recommend playing with radials, since the antenna is a wire vertical. I use the Eagle One with my RV and never used a ground rod. Simply run a wire from the ground connection of the coax away from the antenna, laying it on the ground. The length of radial that works to bring the SWR down will depend on what band, among other things. I "cheat" by adding an automatic antenna tuner at the base of the antenna, but it works pretty good especially on 40 meters.
