There is a "typical" commercial site grounding check list in Appendix B
(I think, don't have the book in front of me) of the PolyPhaser "Grounds"
tutorial.
I have decided not to reply to the various postings by experts, non-experts and
pseudo-experts.

Well, I've seen them and worked from them but I don't have any copies.
Motorola, all of the cellular, paging, etc. companies, state and federal
agencies, etc. all have written standards for site ground systems. They
generally consist of specs for the earth ground, bonding methods, materials,
etc. as well as cable grounding, bulkhead entry, interior building grounds
plus power, telephone and emergency power leads.
Can anyone out there get me a copy of these? If you work for a
communications company, cellular, agency, etc., I would be really grateful.
Thanks!
Cheers, Steve K7LXC
