OK one more time..It is as simple as this...A balanced antenna up more
than 1/4 wavelength "sees" infinite impedance to ground, So to save your
copper braid etc put your antenna up 1/4 wavelength and make certain it is
balanced at feed point, then you do not need any ground other AC safety
grounds. Stray RF in the shack needs attention. RF can kill with
prolonged exposure. Other than poorly shielded gear, the two conditions
above cause RF problems
