Question for You Grounding Gurus
 

Tom,

This is a bit off-topic, but can I ask you ..

Lightning protection comes much more from how you wire things than a
few ground rods...or even a dozen ground rods. As a matter of fact
adding or improving a ground can make things worse if the bonding and
entrance is installed wrong.

The station ground always should attach at the cable entrance point,
and that entrance MUST be bonded to the utilitly entrance ground. Many
people don't do this even though it is critical.

Did you do this yourself, or did you get a pro of some kind? I have
tried to understand the advice I have seen (in particular the ARRL
articles) but I've only become convinced that it needs more knowledge
than I have, or at least that I could easily do exactly the wrong
thing. Would any electrician know enough (I'm suspecting not) or some
other professional?
