Icon SSB 140 tuner connects

Wiring up my 140 tuner and have a quick question- it appears the manual says the ground connection (little wingnut) should be connected to ships ground, but it then says something along the lines of “if GRP, connect the counterpoise...”.. I’m using the KISS cable, soooo... Connect it AND a ground, or just the KISS?

Thanks, and happy holidays.

Only connect the RF Ground/Counterpoise.. aka the KISS is the only thing that needs to be attached to the terminal on the tuner
