Extra ground wire on buss bar
Thanks to Gord Falk’s pictures i noticed there was an extra grounding wire on the buss bar under the wireless table . Here it is . That box was very well thought out and i venture to say overbuilt ! In the pictures we see the two power cables comming down behind the radio , to the left the two battery cables powering the starter on the Onan generator , the rods holding that particular battery and to the right the post -war CPP-2 i installed in the box to provide 12 volt power to the No 19 Set . When i will install the amplifier unit i will power both the No 19 sets and the amplifier with 120 AC Volts from the geny or an outside outlet with house power.

Grounding the buss bar
I finished grounding the buss bar as per Gord’s pictures of an original box . I turned the No 19 set on and immediately noticed better reception with less static . I have tested the No 19 set on a regular basis at the same time of day and on the same frequency ranges for the past month or so . You are to remember that the set , the carrier , the table and the batteries are all grounded to frame through this buss bar .

Grounding truck to ground
Hi , i have no wireless truck experience so i have a stupid question : How do you ground the truck to ground ? Is it as simple as connecting a wire to a frame bolt to a wire and connecting it to a metal spike in the ground ? Manuals speak of grounding the truck to improve reception / transmission over the wireless set , that’s why i am asking .Why does it help ? I have operated on the same frequency ranges in airplanes and we ain’t grounded to earth and it works fine . I must add we have static «*wicks*» on the trailing edges to dissipate static that accumulates on the airframe in precipitation. Just asking .
