Hi Jim,
It's also worth mentioning that failure to bond antenna shields, telco,
catv, and power system grounds at the service entrance could jeopardize
one's insurance coverage. All amateurs should carefully review NEC
Articles 250 and 800. Compliance here can save much grief in the event
of a lightning strike.
