Hi Bob,

My antennae use the same radial field of 60 or so 130' radials. The 
radial plate is 360' from the house. The only connection between the 
house and the radial field is via the coax shield. Are you suggesting 
I run a length of additional wire from one of the radials to the 
grounding point of the service entrance ground rod?
