THis thought just struck me last nite.  !00 foot tower with multiple grounds,
insulated guys, and ameritron 5 position coax switch at the top of the tower.
I want to shunt feed the tower.  The coax switch case and hardware is grounded
via the coax shield back to the shack.  Now the tower is actually grounded
at the top and bottom.  Will it be necessary to isolate the remote coax swittch
from the tower?
