I had bad hum when I used a ground wire with my SStran and 10 feet of antenna wire. However when I changed to a much longer antenna wire the ground didn't make a difference. This is with about 75 feet of wire running around the foundation perimeter of my house then connected to an old dead RG59 cable that ran from the basement to the second floor. The SStran is in my basement and the antenna is connected to the shield and center conductor of the RG59 so I am just using it as a wire extension not a coaxial function.
I get great reception everywhere in the house and up to 50 feet outside. On another note when I tried the treble boost function of the SStran most of my radios produced sibilant distortion and sounded a bit harsh. I am feeding it from a Ipod touch with no internal equalization.
