| Since putting up the full size 160 meter 4-square some years ago, I 
have been very disappointed with my three 2-way Beverages. They 
always fall short of what the 4-square can do on receiving. I plan to 
convert these Beverages to single wire one-way to see if this 
improves the receiving situation to the east, northeast, and northwest.
My question concerns grounding. Should the incoming 75 ohm coax have 
its shield grounded at the 9:1 transformer termination point, or 
should it remain floating at that point? Any experience out there 
about this? If so, your comments will be appreciated.
