I am in the process of mounting an Ameritron remote coax switch at the top
of my tower to select one of three antennas. One of the pre-installations
options is to have unselected antenna outputs grounded. As shipped, they
float.
Grounding seems like such a logical choice, I am surprised they are shipped
floating. Am I missing something? Is floating unselected antennas better
than grounding them?!
