Excellent information. I'll shoot for steel beams in the roof. If that's not an option I'll pickup a 150' extension cord from wal-mart and run an RF ground outside to a pipe in the ground. Like someone mentioned before I don't want to be frying networks, computers or anything else.
You said that the coil was going to be run inside a metal chicken wire christmas tree? just use that as your counterpose, as it will basically be a faraday cage and you should be fine, You will not even need to ground to the beam...
