Ah, so you're taking the Fear of God (tm) approach.
Well, I've seen enough nearby lightning strikes that that makes sense. My main problem is that my electrical service ground is about 70' away (as the crow flies) and probably more like 150' away from the most practical spot to put the antenna (our home is an odd design that consists of two buildings connected by a covered breezeway). I presume that at a certain distance the ground wire is going to be less effective, right? Should I try to split the difference, or run as short a ground wire as possible and have to deal with a much longer coax run?
Thanks again for all of the great information!
