- The original postulation from Brian, K6STI, was that connecting the shield of the coax to ground at a point where any common mode current might exist would shunt it to ground. I've claimed that's a f

- What you are describing is totally different than the original claim (and the subsequent discussion) that the earth is an RF sink. What was the purpose in doing that? Yes, you can make the earth act

- Brian, I didn't say there shouldn't be any current. I said there isn't any current that just goes to ground and stays there ... as in bleeding it off. EZNEC doesn't show that either. It just shows

- Possibly I missed it, but I don't see your EZNEC model. I only saw the diagram. Can you send me the model? Dave AB7E Dave, I don't know what you mean by back and forth. In my model, the ground wi
