				The Lancair belly is E glass.  What is the proper method of attaching the coax shield to the ground plane.  At the present time my BNC connector to the antenna is isolated from the ground plane.

				The coax shield should be attached to the connector thereby physically connecting it to the ground plane - that's how mine is....

				I would attach a jumper wire to the to the shield (preferably under the 
 crimp) and then attach that to the ground plane with a screw or bolt.

    What kind of antenna?  If it's like
    this

    or a shark fin style antenna, then the act of mounting
    the antenna to the ground plane takes care of the
    connection between BNC connector shell and the
    ground plane.
