I'm in the process of setting up a 30-foot telescoping pole attached to the rear ladder with a 14-gauge long-wire wound around it and feeding it with an AH-4 Tuner. I have the tuner mounted at the base of the ladder. I was wondering about the grounding of the darn thing. I have the ground lug of the Tuner attached to the motorhome frame. Obviously I'm only using this while parked. I'm wondering if I should ground the rig with a temporary ground rod? If possible a short rod driven down into the ground as far as is feasible with the idea of pulling it back out when moving on.
I've read some information on this and their seems to be a problem with ground loops, RF problems with RF getting back into all kinds of other equipment.
Any ideas on this?
