15. If an outside antenna or cable system is connected to the product, be sure the antenna or cable system is grounded so as to provide some protection against voltage surges and built-up static charges. Section 810 of the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA No. 70-1984 (Section 54 of Canadian Electrical Code, Part 1) provides information with respect to proper grounding of the mast and support­ing structure, grounding of the lead-in wire to an antenna-discharge unit, size of grounding conductors, location of antenna-discharge unit, connection to ground­ing electrode. See following example.

Troubleshooting VHF/UHF reception
The most common types of television interference are as follows:
SNOWY PICTURE
Snowy picture is usually due to weak signal. Adjust antenna or install an antenna amplifier.
DOUBLE IMAGE OR “GHOSTS”
Double images are usually caused by reflections from tall buildings. Adjust the direction of the antenna or raise it.
RADIO WA VE INTERFERENCE
Wavy patterns are moving on the screen, which are usually caused by nearby radio transmitters or short­wave receiving equipment.
HIGH TEMPERATURE ELECTROTHERMAL INTERFER­ENCE
Diagonal or herringbone patterns appear on the screen or part of picture is missing. This is probably caused by high temperature electrothermal equipment in a nearby hospital.
NOTE:If one of these symptoms appears on the screen
when input from a local cable TV company is connected, this may be due to the local cable company broadcast.
