That's not nearly enough. EVERYTHING in your home must be bonded
together -- power, telco, CATV, your antennas, and all ground rods. Two
places to learn it -- N0AX's recent ARRL book on grounding and bonding,
and my own tutorial, upon which much of Ward's book is based.

Also -- as noted in my tutorial, EVERYTHING connected with your station,
including computers and other accessories connected to your rig) should
get power from the same outlet, or from outlets whose green wires (third
pin) are bonded together in your shack. This is just as important as
bonding.

Good evening The Icom IC-7600 KAT500, and KPA500 are each grounded to a single
terminal strip with a #10 cable directly to a ground rod 15 ft away. The rod is
12 ft deep. Both the KAP and KTA were factory built as my soldering skills have
diminished since the Army training.
