Hmmm, An aluminum bar tied to a copper wire! Be aware that there will
be oxidation at the junction point due to dissimilar metals unless

Everything in the shack is grounded to an aluminum bus bar across the
back of the operating table which is tied with #6 solid copper to the
same point as the tower and AC Main grounds.
Just for reference, the antenna is a 260ft OCF Inverted Vee at 75 ft
using a Balun Designs #4115ocf 4:1/Choke combination balun. Coax
shield is grounded at the top and bottom of the tower.
