Galvanized or Copper Gound Rods?
Hi, Folks.
Looking for some advice.
I want to create a grounded opening in the wall of my ham shack through
which I'll install each rf cable that enters the shack. I plan to bolt a
conductive plate to the wall ground that I'll fasten the ground side of each
coaxial cable to, then bolt a ground cable to each ground rod and the plate.
Is there a significant difference between using the galvanized steel ground
rods and copper to create an rf gound? The copper ones are more than double
the price - is it worth using them?
Thanks, Bob, VE7HS
