[QUOTE="Blitzfike, post: 2799533, member: 807"] Later on, I ran a long wire up the outside wall and across the roof to the corner of the detached garage on the other side of the house. I had it running under the screen and window, and had a ground wire going to the galvanized pipe in the bathroom across the hall. When the weather got wonky, I would get small discharges across the coil from static buildup. My dad put a spark plug on the antenna lead with the threaded portion tied to the ground and that kept things from getting too bad.. The wire was about 30 gauge spooled off an old relay armature.
