Probably float the shield end at the antenna and ground the the other
shield end at the radio. This is the old Faraday shield trick that
works at video up to 4 Mhz. The purists say it shouldn't, but i have
seen in video hum reduction and RFI it does indeed work.

I am going to use Twinax - the Twinax I have purchased has a braiding screen

What do I connect if anything the coax type screening to?
Do I leave it floating or connect it to one of the inner two wires.
Sorry if its a sill question but I have never used Twinax before and the
construction details explain that Twinax is the best choice for the phasing and
connection to the two loops being the most durable in respect of weather and
