Iwire's got it! [Linked Image]

The maintenance electrician caught me taking this picture, and the conversation went nearly verbatim with HotLine1's description above, even to the weathered copper that was "just put in".

(The weights on the base are just machinery parts, non-automotive)

The guy asked me if I had a proper ground clamp on my truck. Of course he'd replace it as soon as he can get to a store.

I went to a copy machine in the plant and made him a copy of 810.21 instead.

There are still very obvious violations unrelated to the antenna in this pic.
Any takers?
