I disconnect the feedline entirely, from the antenna mast and from my station.
I put it away, in a drawer.
I operate portable, and, only now would like to have a QTH.
I had never read the mast ground and the station ground should be connected.
Is that right?
I have no place for a dipole, except the attic. I have been considering
15-meter and 17-meter for the attic.
For outdoors, I am considering an end fed as a sloper, that's it.
In "lightening season" here, the mast will be disassembled and stored in the
garage, where it is right now.
It is a portable "military mast" in sections.
This is because we have lightning without rain. We also have ground lightning.
There is "no way" I would have a mast in our "lightning season".
If I were elsewhere, I would photograph 360-degrees around my site and consult
the lightning expert at C. Crane Co.
My concern, here, is have I planned everything the right way for the end-fed
sloper I described further up the thread?
