Greg,
.
If you build the Shortwave Listener (SWL) Antenna
as described in my post.


Okay, thanks RHF. You answered my question about grounding to the household
elec ground. At first I thought you meant it was okay to ground through the
third hole in the outlet. But it's not. So I still have to run a heavy
ground wire from the inside wall to the nearest elec ground, which would be
20 to 25 feet, up through the wall and across part of the attic.
