I think his mast is touching the ground, but he is using something other than the MiniNec ground, which with all grounds except for Perfect and MIniNec will treat the end of the wire like it is hanging out in space and isn't connected to anything.

At the same time he used EZNec. While it isn't my favorite modeling software, I have used it in the past, and as I recall if you use anything with a direct wire to the ground below and don't use either Perfect or MiniNec ground I recall it popping up a message telling you that your results will not be accurate... I guess it is just one of several things that he has said or written on his web site that I question...
