I guess the old way of attaching a wire to the screw that holds the face
plate of the electric outlet won't be any good then. I could have swore my
father years ago used that for grounding.

Been
using protables now & a set top with a whip built in antenna (RS394).


Only if your mains wiring is in metallic pipe or raceways. Otherwise
I'd run a discrete wire.



A fuse or breaker box that is ''served'' by metal conduit or raceway,
or a metal (for sure) cold water pipe that has metallic continuity
(for sure) into the ground.
