grounding plates

[woodster]

i am looking at installing a grounding plate on my S-2...and am wondering if they make one that will also have a sacrifical zinc that works in conjuction with the grounding plate ....or would this be a big no no ...should they be keeped in a stand alone application.....

regards

A (copper) grounding plate is used as an RF ground. A zinc is intended for an entirely different purpose, that being as a sacrificial anode. Why would you want to interconnect them?

was just thinking that i could piggy back the zinc and only have one place on the hull for both
