Antenna grounding help
Hello Jim:
I appreciate the detailed reply and I have printed out the Low Voltage
Handbook and will read it over this weekend.
When I started doing research I found this web site for dish
installations. Can you comment on what it describes as the "5
suitable grounding locations". They seem to indicate that you can use
an electrical panel and or the "raceway" as a ground. I'm confused.

Also, why is there a mention for separate grounding of the mast
and the coax?
Do I need to provide one ground for the mounting pipe (mast) that
secures the base of the antenna (the aluminum sleeve that contains the
connector at the base) to the brick wall and a second ground to the
grounding lug on the inline gas discharge unit?
Thanks for the help on this. I want to get this right!
