In general, MORE and SHORTER bonding paths are better. It is also best to make keep the shortest bonding path outside the house if that is practical. The rule is that we can have as many earth connections as we like, more is better, but ALL grounds must be bonded together. That includes power, antenna entry, ham shack operating desk, telephone entrance (the lightning protector), cable TV entry, satellite, lightning rods, etc. And, of course, the "green wire" in every AC outlet should be carried through to every equipment chassis, and there should be a bond between every chassis, and that combination of bonds is the "shack" ground. 73, Jim K9YC ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:[email protected] This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html
