This is a VERY BAD thing to do. ALL grounds within a building, MUST,
by LAW be BONDED together by a low impedance path (that means BEEFY,
DEPENDABLE, and SHORT). This is a requirement because it is the
SAFEST thing you can do, both for lightning safety and safety for
personnel. If this doesn't work for you, you need to fix your
station, especially your antenna system. And if you've read
somewhere that you should make that separation, burn that book!
