[TenTec] Grounds

George,

Many of us are totally confused on this topic and telling us to read a 50
page document which is over our heads is not a solution.  Many hams live in
rental property and cannot re-design their house wiring.

Seems every time some "real engineer" writes tips for grounding, some other
"real engineer" says its wrong and gives us his tips.  

If this document is wrong, what within the document was wrong?
Calling the guy a pseudo engineer doesn't help us.

More important, in simple terms, how should we ground our station?

>From what I've read, it seems the experts can't even agree if the negative
lead of our power supplies should be grounded to the chassis or not.  Seems
like that would be a good start.

Really    Tell me how you "ground"  an antenna in an airplane    Carry a
basket full of  dirt?  These kind of articles written by pseudo engineers
are not helpful
