WARNING: Use extreme caution when installing or

removing an outdoor antenna. If the antenna starts to

fall, let it go! It could contact overhead power lines. If

the antenna touches a power line, touching the antenna,

mast, cable, or guy wires can cause electrocution and

death. Call the power company to remove the antenna.

DO NOT attempt to do so yourself.

WARNING: Outdoor antennas must be properly

grounded to prevent static buildup and lightning

damage. Article 810 of the National Electrical Code,

ANSI/NFPA 70, provides information about proper

grounding of the antenna mast, connection of coaxial

cable to an lightning arrestor, size of grounding

conductors, location of the lightning arrestor and

connection of grounding conductors to grounding

electrodes.

Additionally, disconnect your radio from the outdoor

antenna during electrical storm activity to prevent

damage. The diagram below provides an example of a

proper antenna grounding system.
