Yes - OK for you, but mine covers all eventualities

They do say _all_ grounds should be connected, but works with only one.

Sounds like wrong advice. The smaller the RGB signal, the less
brightness. Maybe if too bright then one gets ghosting, maybe that is
what you meant?

No extra power is drawn when UHF is connected. More likely a ground
problem with the monitor Vs TV.
