I have the aluminum 24" and I use a screw clamp on the aluminum leg on the 
back.  

Definitely eliminated the potential difference I used to see from the Mac to 
the radio.

As much as I love Mac's there is nothing inherently magic about them that 
disallows the need for proper grounding.

Also, running a ground strap is not in any way going to alter the warranty.

In Phil's case, even using the SignalLink (for whatever reason) does not 
preclude the possibility of needing the units bonded together.  

I wondered how long it would take K9YC to weigh in on this and I'm sure he can 
do a much better job of explaining the requirement.  Taking a look at his 
tutorial  is an excellent idea.
