I put my shack together several years ago and today was reviewing my grounding 
system hoping that I could find a magic trick that might quiet some of my noise 
on 80 and 160.
I've got a decent grounding bus on the back of my desk with a #6 copper wire 
running about 8' through the floor to the electrical grounding wire that runs 
from the electrical panel about 6' outside to ground rods.  I could also or 
instead run my grounding wire to a copper cold water pipe that runs about 75' 
before it leaves the house.
Am I better off leaving it as is, grounded to the electrical ground?  Or would 
the cold water pipe be better?
