There are mixed opinions on grounding the shield at the tower. I do not. Are you using a current balun? If so, is it at the feedpoint? 73, Keith NM5G OK so the sparkgap arrestor is not a problem. Sho

Perhaps. But it will not stop the worldwide use of CW or the ubiquitous CW contests. And, as a VE, I can assure you it means less hassle for the typical VE session. 73, Keith NM5G http://www.fcc.gov/
