Finally getting around to putting my rigs into mobile operation again.
My first project is to get my antenna system in place. Plan on using individual tunable antennas such as hamsticks or equiv. Placement would be on rear ladder, removed during transit.
My question: When connecting the ground wire from the antenna to the frame of the RV, what are the best washers, if any, to use between the steel frame and the wire connector; trying to prevent electrolysis, oxidization etc. Would they be zinc coated, stainless steel, or???
Most ring connectors are zinc plated, will that suffice?
I guess copper wire against steel is NOT the best way to go.
