Hi,
I have a big self supporting tower in the yard, it is grounded by grounding rods and of course itself. I am attaching two satelite dishes to the tower. The most practical way is using 2x4 wood, this will work great just screwing them to the wood and it will squeeze itself to the brackets and support nicely. I am wondering about the connection to the tower because there will not be grounded to the tower. There wont be any connection (metal to metal) form the satelite dish and the tower, that leads me to believe that the only grounding would be the shielded cable which gets grounded to the nice new 50" plazma. My question is should i ground that? Should the satelite dish itself be grounded to the tower? Is there any reason for this? Safety wise or interference wise? It would be very simple to do, but not sure if I should or want to. Please give me advice as to either ground the dish to tower or not to. Does anyone think there will be issues? Should I or shouldn't I? Thanks for any advice. |
