Hi Guys,

In my garden ( a 12m x 12m lot) i've put all my low band antennas: in the 
middle there's a 20m vertical for 80 and 160 with some 60 radials of different 
lenght (from 10 to 40m .... of course the longest one are sloped back), 2 EWE 
with 4 short radials each side and a single k9ay loop with other 3 short 
radials.Each antenna is even connected with a ground rod buried some 2 meters 
in the hearth ... so there are 5 ground rods in my 12m*12m lot .Have i to 
connect each rod to the other? Or it's better each one is not eletrically 
connected to the other ? Of course the main rod is even connected with the 
house groud (this one has the house ground with the 20m vertical radial sistem).
Please let me know your opinion.
Best regards.
Marco,IK0YVV
