Hi everyone,
Soon I will be providing ADS-B to FR24. However, I am confused about the antenna installation. The aerial will be connected to a steel mast and I'm reading opposing views about earthing this mast. Some people say earthing allows static electricity from wind and storm activity can safely dissipate to earth. Othes say that earthing provides an invitation to lightning to strike due to the low resistance path to Earth. I don't know who is correct and certainly dson't want a full on lightning strike either.
Can I have some advice please.
Thanks,
