In Response To: Tom, don't fixate on this ()

I want good broadcasting with little interference with the installation of the air terminal and vhf antenna with the terminal higher.

    - We have a conventionally grounded masthead , Windex, and a "fuzzy" topped grounded spike that some people have fun of
      - SG do you have an air terminal higher than your antenna?
        
        Inserting a splitter loses 1-3db signal
        
        Thanks SG
        
        It's about a 2' extension on the mast head -- about the same height as my VHF (It's a short Metz antenna).
    - The issues are more frequent with trying not to ground and micro discharges
- Tom, I think you would be "re-muddling" your masthead
