Equipment / Re: Grounding receiver ??
« on: July 04, 2023, 1819 UTC »
I have always had reservations about grounding active antennae. The reason being is that the shield is used as a negative DC conductor (via the Bias-T). Grounding the coax between the Bias-T and the antenna technically should create a ground loop as you now have a different ground resistance between the shield and the ground rod then what you have at the receiver and its ground. By doing so you have also now connected DC ground to the AC / RF ground system, potentially introducing noise on the coax up to the antenna which is then amplified and returned to the receiver as RFI/EMI.


Ant ----0- Bias-T ------------------0- Receiver
        | (gnd)                     | (gnd)
        | <- gnd loop resistance -> | (potential difference, differential current)
        | (gnd rod)
      -----

   <--- | <-----------<----------<- | potentially source of noise towards the antenna
   ---> | ->---------->-----------> | RFI/EMI returned to the reciever
