I have a few questions on grounding and was hoping someone could help me out ...
(1) Can I use a heating vent as a ground for my transceiver or do I have to run ground cable from my 2nd floor 'shack to be' to a rod / plate buried in the ground outside?
(2) If I have a dipole set up in my attic can I ground this to anything in the house? (similar to question 1 above) Do I have to ground it at all?
I just need some general tips on how this should be done. As you can tell I'm a little new to this and want to make sure I do it right without having to drill too many holes in the house <img src=http://www.ezboard.com/intl/aenglish/images/emoticons/happy.gif ALT="

Thank you.
