Hi,
A simple question on station grounding.  I have a copper wall plate for common 
grounding of all of my station equipment.  I have 2" wide copper strap to 
connect each piece of gear to the copper panel.  Most pieces of equipment have 
a simple bolt for grounding.  Seems to me that a single/small bolt connection 
to the copper strap is not a very good connection. Any suggestions here?  
Should I simply be connecting the 2" copper strap to the grounding bolt of each 
piece of gear or is there a better method?
Thanks,
Richard Harris - KJ7CU
 
Also, thanks to all those that gave me advice on my 160M shunt-fed tower. 
Working great.  A lot of work but well worth the effort
