Ham radio grounding is somewhat confusing, as there are three (3) types of "grounding" to consider; 1) Safety Ground, 2)Lightning Ground, and 3) RF Ground.

The 2002 NEC 810 Part III - Amateur Transmitting and Receiving Stations - Antenna Systems is the starting point to look at. 810.58 - Grounding Conductors -- Amateur Transmitting and Receiving Stations has you refer back to 810.21(A) through (J), which then refers you back to 250.50, 250.52, and 250.94. (are we confused yet?)

We need to find out just what type(s) of grounding this Ham operator is trying to install at the new location.

A good place to go for information about Ham radio grounding is "www.arrl.org". Doing a google search for "ham radio grounding" also brings up a great deal of useful (though at times contridiction) information.

If this were easy, it wouldn't be near as hard to do! (grin)
