Hello all,

I just got active again after a few years of absence .

I managed to shunt feed my 90 foot tower wih  40 m 3 el  beam as toploading . 

Now my question is should I connect all the radials I put on the ground to the 
base of the tower or should I just connect the braid of the coax to the tower 
base and leave the radials
just connected to each other but not connected to tower base and coax braid ?
