Top Band enthusiasts often bond everything imaginable to their ground system, so why not try it. OK! What GeNiuS pUt thE CaPlocK KEy RiGhT NeXt to The Shft KEY? The same genius who put the function keys along the top of the keyboard, just out of reach when you're t7ping. If the Caps Lock key bugs you as much as it bugs me, put some stiff foam under the key-cap, so it won't go down unless you really mean it. -- 73 from Ian G3SEK 'In Practice' columnist for RadCom (RSGB) http://www.ifwtech.co.uk/g3sek |

Top Band enthusiasts often bond everything imaginable to their ground system, so why not try it. I'd be very worried with all those poor connections at every link point. Could be (could) be a really good noise source. It seems that any movement would cause changes in the current path creating noise on the Rx AND _your_ Tx signal. I fought similar problems on mobile phone installations. The Appollo pick up ships had similar problems from the chain deck railing parts. Good luck. OK!

Nice idea, Ian, FOAM... -- Steve N, K,9;d, c. i My email has no u's. The same genius who put the function keys along the top of the keyboard, just out of reach when you're t7ping.

Hmmm Sounds good , Put up a 1wl loop for 80 meters (274ft+/-)?
up 20 to 40 feet,feed it with ladder line or window line (61ft) into a balanced tuner and rock and roll. Should be able to cover the entire US on 40 and 80meters with some rather Brutal lobes on 20m. You be Jammin!!! I get consistent 9+5, 9+10 reports on 40m out 500miles with this setup on 10watts!!!!!!
