Larry, Those are the classic symptoms of a parasitic oscillation. You probably already know this. But in any case, you need to look at suppression and low pass (HF) filters in the rest of the path to

Well....yes and no. Yes, a circuit exists through your radio gear that ties the two grounds together. Depending on the equipment, it might even be a pretty good connection, although not at RF. But if

Or....a half wave ground wire, to repeat the low impedance at earth right at the radio. And, since lightning is RF, I feel that a real RF ground is important, even for lightning. 73 de Gary, AA2IZ _

See my other reply on this subject. No source, in my setup, for any appreciable current to flow on this ground path. No more than there normally is on anyone's ground path. Of course, as has been wri
