[Lowfer] Co-ax/Feedline problem.

Loss in the coax is not going to be a problem at these frequencies.  Even
RG-58 is acceptable at LF and VLF from the perspective of loss ahead of a
receiver...provided, as John A. indicated, there is some reasonable match
between the antenna and line.

No.  It's better from a noise standpoint to maintain the full transmission
line effect by keeping the shield connected at the receiver end.  It might
not be a problem immediately, but as different possible interference sources
come and go, keeping a closed system could make a big difference
