I believe that depends on what frequencies you are trying to receive.  Grounded antennae are generally only grounding the mast holding them and not the central receiving element or wire.   At least that's the way I've understood it as a Ham radio operator for many decades.  If you ground your receiving element or wire you loose a lot of receptivity.  And you would be shorting out your transmitter or at least creating a terrible standing wave ratio.  By grounding an antenna you are directing most of the power received to go into the Earth ground where I believe it would be dissipated and be mostly useless.   However I suppose if you inductively couple to it on the way to ground you may capture some of the power.

@e2matrix,

             1 Mhz range radio frequency full sine wave power can't travel along a wire. Ohm's law proves zero wire resistance at that frequency. That RF power just passes right through everything. This is the frequency Joe Tate's germanium diode rectifier is tuned for.

              Multiple recieving tuner coil interference from grounding can be a problem in a highly sensitive short wave radio, but that has nothing to do with power leaking into the ground. The old roof top T.V. antennas produced static in the CRT'S when not properly grounded. Joe Tate's circuit is a rectifier, not a group of sensitive coupled signal tuner coils like you had in your Ham Radio recievers.

             
              "Neutral wires are usually connected at a neutral bus within panelboards or switchboards, and are "bonded" to earth ground at either the electrical service entrance, or at transformers within the system".

              The transformer is two blocks from my apartment. The common ground at the transformer is tied into a web of neutral lines that connects to the entire grid. Some may ground at the electrical service entrance. I imagine APM neutral line voltage may vary from house to house depending on the amount of overhead wire between the outlet and earth ground.

Totoalas has shown us how our household wiring acts as a huge radio recieving antenna. Turn off all the main breakers at the service entrance and try and use the power wires for the Ambient Power Module antenna alone, or better yet; Join all the wires together by connecting the power wires and the neutral lines to one another at the outlets to double the antenna dimension. We may never have to turn those breakers back on ever again! Lo and behold!

Dr. Nakamatsu, the famous inventor from Japan, runs a demonstration house in Tokyo, reportedly off Cosmic Rays. His patent was denied for lack of content. Visitors to his demonstration house report finding nothing except a water heater size capacitor alongside the house filled with family size pizza pan conductor plates.

"Dr. Nakamat's free electricity system is so effective that soon after expending boat loads of electric power for the demands of his home, the system still produces electrical energy to become sold to the Tokyo Electrical Power Company"!

Here's a cool video tour of his house. He has a special collector wall. Perhaps he never thought of harnessing Cosmic Ray power from household wires?
