nal, be sure the antenna system is grounded so as
to provide some protection against voltage surges
and built up static charges.

discharge unit, connection to grounding elec-
trodes, and requirements for the grounding elec-
trode. See Fig. A.

3) Use No.10 AWG (5.3 mmz) cop-
per, No. 8 AWG (8.4 mmz) alu-
minum, No. 17 AWG (1.0 mm?)
copperclad steel, bronze wire, or
larger as ground wire.

b) Secure antenna lead-in and
ground wires to house with
stand-Off insulators spaced from
4 feet (1.22 meters) to 6 feet
(1.83 meters) apart.

C) Mount antenna discharge unit as
