15. OutdoorAntennaGrounding -Ifan outsideantenna is connected
to the receiver, be sure the antenna system is grounded so as to
provide some protection against voltage surges and built-up static
charges.Article810 ofthe NationalElectrical Code,ANSI/NFPA70,
provides information with regard 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 electrodes, and
