Hi all,
I've identified the antenna I'd like to purchase, and would like to mount it using a Y wall-mount bracket, like this:

Whether I use a 5' or 10' mast, there will still be interference because of trees. Should I instead choose just a 5' because it will be less likely to be impacted by the wind, or doesn't it make a difference either way? I plan to use the 18 gauge galvanized masts for this:

Grounding in my house is done by connecting the electric service to the main water line inside the house with a regular water pipe ground clamp. To ground the antenna, am I supposed to run a ground wire from the antenna mast into the house and connect it using a ground clamp on the water pipe?
Or is it sufficient (or correct) to use a coax ground block once the wire is inside the house, like this?

The cable would come into the house with the rest of the cable wires, where the water service is also located.
Sure appreciate any ideas.
Thanks,
Dave
