Angier, Yes, absolutely crucial to remove all those resonant harmonic slow me downs. Yes to your whole post. I have grounded my shields together at the whelen unit. They are then wired directly to the battery terminal with about a 12 AWG wire and have no noise from the whelen system. Of course, only ground the one end of the shield as "ground loops" have bad possibilities. As a matter of practicality I would be tempted to run your shield and encased strobe cable all the way out into the rudder as protection against abrasion. Additionally it solves your noise concerns near the antenna. This might also eliminate one connector (failure potential and weight savings :)) Sleaving of course is another option. Hope you get done in time for Suffolk! Larry
