Default Why ground the transmitter?

MK,
The 'problem' wasn't completely on my end (neighbor's defective
devices), but a good grounding did help cure the a RFI. Is grounding
a 'sure thing' as a cure? Nope, but it certainly doesn't hurt if it's
at all possible, which isn't always a 'sure thing'.
Also used to use a fence around the place as a ground. Very BAD idea
since the fence was connected to the neighbor's fence too. Just 'took'
the RF closer to the neighbor, probably a 'sort' of direct connection to
his 'stuff'. Always a 'bad' idea? No, but something to think about.
