Depends on the dirt content of the air that particular day...

Not advisable, but maybe better than nothing.

Ground Wire Question :
[Was : ground wire question]

TD Ton...

IMHO - On a scale of One-to-Ten (110) the direction
that a Ground Wire runs (routed) is about a Seven (7).

# 1 - Solid Connection to a Good Earthen Ground Rod / Point
# 2 - Bonding to the House's Electrical System
# 3 - Shortest possible distant / Shortest possible Ground Wire.
# 4 - Thick-Heavy-Large Size Ground Wire - The Ground Wire
should be at least 3X to 4X the Size of your Antenna Wire.
+ Add your own #s 5-10
So... What's On Your List When Designing and
Installing Your Radio Shack's Ground System ?

I ground my masts and bond the co-ax shields to the masts. I use the
IEC grounds at the indoor end. We don't have lightning here, but if
it were to threaten I'd just unplug everything and throw the wires
outside..

Not sure I understand your question, but if your equipment is above
the ground, how else will you attach it?

Unplugging stuff during lightning storms is always a good idea. Are you
grounding the coax shield at both ends? If so, would that not set up a
possible noise inducing current flow in the sheath because of voltage
differential between the grounds?

There is a certain "Natural-Order-of-Things" Logic to your answer )
