[RFI] Shielding a ground wire

[qrv at kd4e.com]

Interesting notion to solve the problem, though I am guessing
the RFI experts here may want to look at why your ground wire
is getting RFI - both the sources and something about your
grounding system.

However, in theory, if the ground wire is functioning as an
antenna for airborne RF I seem to recall that grounding only
end of the coax shield may block those signals.

I look forward to the better-informed replies to come.  I
love to learn about this stuff!
