Tv Antennas and Reception

The reason for grounding the coax foil shield and shield wires , is not so much the lightning. It's WWTO 10 , the signal is so strong that need to direct the signal that is picked up by the foil shield and shield wires of the coax to ground so does not overload the tv tuner. The center wire of the coax is what carries the signal.
