Are you thinking of a Bias-T?
MFJ sells them with some of their tuners.

I guess what Chuck means, is a Ground loop due to the antenna end of the
coax. screen being connected to Earth thus causing the feeder shield to
become a loop antenna with the ground RF return path to Rx. Hence, resulting
in excess noise pick-up.
Normally
EZNEC is correct. Adding more radials, even long ones, in a specific
direction won't preferentially favor the direction in which the radials are
added. It will help raise the overall efficiency of the antenna to a
degree, depending on how many radials are already in place, but any
improvement

There are protectors that don't block DC. A study of mfr catalogs will
find them.
73,
I 'think' what Chuck is trying to do is install a lightening protector
at his coax entrance panel.

Hi Chuck,
Based on the application you mentioned, I suspect you’re looking for
commercially available bias tees. MFJ sells Bias Tees.

There ain't no such thing as a "ground loop." It's a faulty concept, and
using it to solve a problem are a bad idea. Most problems blamed on
"ground loops" are the result of a failure to
Hi -
Many years ago I saw some ground loop isolators that pass DC.
That is exactly what I need so that power can be sent over coax feeds to
preamp at the antenna.
I cant find anything on eBay that mentions passing DC in an isolator. None of
the isolators I have will pass DC.
Does anyone
My shunt fed tower has 36 radials 70 to 100 ft long. Would adding a few
longer radials towards EU help to EU?
Eznec says no.

Sounds scary Roger. Glad you came out of it reasonably well.
( I have 52 ft of 1.5"x 4' sections of mil surplus aluminum mast ( one
by one LIFT- then INSERT the next at ground level) laid into a 40 ft
walnut tree, tied at the bottom to the tree trunk and guyed at the top
with five 3/16" cords.
