At the time of the year when rains (and thunderstorms) haven't quite started, the wind accumulates sufficient voltage in the 80m dipole to cause an arc between the two sides of the PL-480, repeating every 5 or 10 seconds. Quite painful, actually, until you know it's there. And something that destroyed one of our antenna analyzers.

   I'm not Roger, but a RF choke coil between each conductor and your 
ground wire should take care of that problem.


   Many locals (government inspectors) in America do not permit any
equipment in elevator rooms other than the elevator mechanism, a safety
precaution.

   I've looked and I still do not know what a PL-480 connector is. ?
