The same but  using earth the lossy conductive medium instead of  foil
in  picture  where  it says connecting wire there is  no connecting wire  and instead there is  earth
black arrows are indicating that you can tune the device by lifting up and down  TC ( Top Capacitor)

Yes, I did that test with 10ft deep x 3/4 inch pure copper grounding rods and only 15 feet apart and got zero watt transfer.
I'm quite sure that's when poynt99 changed his mind about the ground being a conductive medium for the TC top caps.
Don't get me wrong, I do believe ground can be used as a conductor but in some parts of the world where the ground is mostly sand, the cost to create a low impedance ground could be very costly, maybe $5k or more.

I explained quite  detailed conditions for impedance match.
apart from that you  need:
- vertical  polarization
- your wave must be in TM mode
- right Brewster angle( wave tilt)
- and possibly  phase match ( may  not be critical)
Your videos  shows small fixed   Top Capacitors with no ability to  move up/down
Your distance was 15ft  try  60ft and your TEM changed to TM mode might be already in the  interface

This  is the right size of  Top capacitor and distance from  the earth   or foil:
D= or > 4d

But that does'n  yet give you the  right height.
Moving TC  up  down makes  the tuning .
===============================================================
Everything is  in  my posts from  above  and in my video.
I  suggest to try  now foil instead of wire next you can try   air earth  interface 
keep  the  distance  at 60ft if possible if not than 25 ft  is  OK  too.
The  frequency  used at test  below was 27MHz
But you can use any frequency of your choice below 54MHz

isn't foil just a conductor?
could you put the foil through a water bath?  
I mean to look-up - are tesla capacitors actually an inner post and outer plate?  or are they just two sets of bottles with a single conductor in each?  With no current exchange between the bottles?

(I wish there was a fixed point font - code or pre)

I made this: https://gitter.im/FreedomCollective/PureEnergy  I'm @d3x0r there too   It's more like slack/;discord, but less noisy because it's for sharing project information.

Maybe a bit too early but this will explain a lot in next steps :
