Hi Jozef -- well, I'm feeling dumb. I never looked at the schematic before
writing my previous message, but you're quite right. So nothing to worry
about. It will be interesting to see what happens among my various
antennas, all on the one tower, when the feedlines go from being all open
to all grounded. We'll find out, I guess.
