On my phone at the moment Nikki so will be brief, be very careful about earthing in the shack, there is lots on here and elsewhere about it. I personally have no earth system in my shack. Be careful not to buy into what the yanks have to do. Fm |

I'd agree with Brian, no earth used here Nikki, and I have no RF issues, either from my vertical 1/2 wave on 10 - 12 meters, or my fan dipole for the other HF bands. I do have a 5ft bronze earth stake in the ground, but notice no improvement when I connect it to my radios, so I don't bother with it. 73, Andy. |
