Ok, I will do it this way.

I am going to run a 1/2" conduit around the perimeter and am running a home run from the mast to the existing service with #10 AWG wire. I am putting the grounding block right where the coaxial is entering the house, which is directly below the antenna. I will then continue the ground (this will not be spliced. I will just bare the wire at the grounding block) around the house to the front where the service is. I can just tie my #10 AWG wire directly into the existing ground rod (with the appropriate connector) and I am done?
