Is it better to place lightning protecting at the base of the tower or

The electrical code, which is worried about structure and life
protection, requires it at the entry point to the structure.
If you have a long run underground between tower and house, then there
is some advantage in also having protection at the base of the tower, on
the assumption that the coax on the tower would be destroyed, but the
coax underground would be saved.
I'm not sure about that.
