Grounding
A thread to consider:
http://forum.tvfool.com/showthread.php?t=901 (post #20 is a summary)
I advocate for keeping the mast ground/bonding conductor and coax ground/bonding conductor separate all the way to the point where they connect to the electrical service grounding system. The idea is that fault current flowing in a conductor will result in a voltage equal to the current times the resistance of the conductor. For small fault currents, this voltage will be small. But if a fault causes a larger current, I don't want to see the large voltage connected to an adjacent part of the antenna system. If you do that, you'll wind up with fault current in parts of the system that you didn't expect.
