The standard recommendations are to bond the feedline to the tower at
the top, at the bottom (always take the feedline to the very bottom of
the tower) and to the power line ground where the feedline enters the
building. If the feedline does not enter the building at the same
place as the power line, install a complete grounding bus all the way
around the exterior of the building with 8 foot ground rods every
16 feet and bond the feedline to the ground ring where it crosses
the ring.

Thanks for all the responses. The tower has a 6"x6" plate on top.
One of the questions was grounding the feedline at the top of the tower and
then at the side of the house at the polyphaser a few feet from the tower.
Is this the typical practice? The Ward Silver book says this as I read.
