Thanks much for the reply - I've found your postings on grounding very helpful.
Bearing in mind that the cable already has the F-connectors, is it typical for the 'messenger' wire to be in a separate "sleeve" that can be peeled back from the coax outer covering for grounding? The picture doesn't show how the 'messenger' is integrated with the coax - and the reviews I read didn't shed any light on the issue - but that is the only way I can visualize it working.
When you use it, do you use the messenger to ground the mast as well as the coax itself? If so, what's the best way to do that?
