MASTING
Step 1. Mount the grounding block as close as possible to where the 75 ohm coaxial cable downlead enters the house. See Figure 11.
Step 2. The ground wires for both the mast and the downlead should be copper or aluminum wire, number eight (8) or larger. See Figure 11.
Step 3. The downlead wire from the antenna to the grounding block and the mast ground wire should be secured to the house spaced from four (4) to six (6) feet apart. See Figure 11.
NOTE: In the case of a “ground up” antenna installation, it may not be necessary to ground the mast if the mast extends four or more feet into the earth. Consult a TV serviceman for the proper depth in your location.
