Phil, If you get PolyPhaser's tutorial, "The 'Grounds' for Lightning and EMP Protection" you'll notice they show 2/0 pigtails coming out of the rebar and connecting to the tower base and radial syste

I mix RG8X and 9913 and on HF have never noticed a problem. The issues you raise would be of concern if you were phasing (e.g. 4-Square, 4 over 4 for 20, etc.) and then for physical lengths (and you
