Hello. In preparation for the summer I am planning on grounding my dish antenna mast. I'm not sure why my installer didn't do this, as he only grounded the RG-6 cable to my electrical box on the inside of the house (it's a condo, and my electrical box is located on the inside of the house.)
My question is, how important is grounding the antenna, and what is the proper way to do this.
Any help would be great!
