BNB Sound wrote: I set up my Icom 735 in my shack, grounded the radio and tuner to a copper bus salvaged from an old fuse box with #12 wire. The bus is attached to a ground rod directly outside the window with six feet of #4 THHN. The antenna is a fan dipole cut for 40 and 20, 38 feet up on top of the house. Field strength numbers are from a Radio Shack SWR/FS meter and therefore completely arbitrary. The GFCI outlet that protects the circuit the rig is on would sometimes operate fine for hours, and sometimes trip even with the rig Replace the GFCI with a new one of a different brand. -- Rich Greenberg N Ft Myers, FL, USA richgr atsign panix.com + 1 239 543 1353 Eastern time.
