[Elecraft] Ground Strap

[George, W5YR]

Paul, with all respect, a ground strap 50 ft long will probably cause many
more problems that it could cure.

If you require an "r-f ground" and are that far from Earth ground, which is
always questionable as to its r-f effectivenss even with a short connecting
conductor, consider using 1/4-wavelength "driven ground" wires in the shack
to place the shack equipment at near zero r-f potential.
