Thanks that is pretty much what I was thinking. We have been without cable for over two years and I do not miss the bill one bit.
I need help with getting the mast properly grounded. Our house is old and there is no grounding rod. There is a ground wire from the breaker box fished through the attic and back down to the water line inside the house. Single story on a slab.
I don't have a problem installing a grounding rod for the antenna mast but I am not clear on how to bond it, should it tie into the service panel? I want to make sure everything is done correctly.
