Signal loss thru grounding block?

Postby arcticcatmatt on Fri Apr 17, 2009 10:38 pm

I want to properly ground my system. I see online that to ground the coax cable I need a grounding block. Will there be signal loss with that?

My antenna is mounted to a metal pole, the bottom of the pole is in my dirt, so is that grounded?

A coax grouding block has so little loss as to be insignificant: use it!
