[TenTec] Coaxial Ground

Shawn,
I was speaking in general about all coaxes.

However, it should be noted if one uses the disc ceramic 0.01 mf across the 
shield to ground that greatly increases the bypassing effect of the coax 
capacitance alone.

An interesting conjecture is once you bypass to the shield does the use of 
the capacitor introduce RF to both the inside and outside of the shield? 
(doubling the path area to ground?)
