Why would his coax tie him to the service ground?

Radio antenna connector to radio chassis ground.
Radio chassis ground to radio power plug. Radio power
plug to wall outlet. Wall outlet to service ground.



Mobile radio with a power supply. Power supply has a transformer, which isolates
it it from direct connection. The PS is an old RS unit which does not have a
ground on it's plug.

So in essence, you're wrong.

sigh. Look at a schematic sometime. The PS transformer ain't isolating
*anything* from ground, dude.


Actually, I did that before I posted, to be sure. The transformer is not
connected to ground. I will gladly take a picture and email it to you if you
want. There is no ground plug on the AC plug.

I am not going to get into name calling with you. I will appreciate your help if
you try to help me. But if you want to belittle me, then let the others try and
help me.

On a 2 wire system, the case has to be isolated. On a 3 wire system, the
case is tied to ground, and not the neutral. Can YOU read a schematic?

Who is that? That dude live pretty close to his neighbors. I only have one close
neighbor, about 100 feet away. My other neighbors are about 300 or more feet
away.

BTW moped, do you have my new email? I can email it to you.

You could use a ground mounted vertical. In that case, you'll be all set
with the buried coax.



I see a tree that should work well. I will take a measure to it. The
ground is
rather wet there, so I think grounding it there will be ideal.

Vinnie S.


The ground mounted vertical I was talking about would be a multi-band,
trapped vertical.

OK, since your radio is not connected to service ground, stick a fork into
one hole of your wall outlet, the hot side. Hang on and grab your radio
chassis with the other hand. Let me know how it goes.

I am trying to save you from wearing size 50 pants, having body odor and
complaining about your medical problems on 75 meters. Just get
a base station cb antenna, plug it in and forget it.

This NG supplies all the evidence anyone needs, look at people like
steveo and tnom, they are keyclowns, they run out of band and
illegal power.


The only legit thing that is evident in this group is that your
postings are always based on your false assumptions.

You don't have a clue as to who I am or what I do. Your assertion
that I run out of band with illegal power is false and it only further
supports that fact that you continue to be clueless.

Anything? Are you sure about that?


OK you got me on a technicalty. Next look for any words misspelled.
