Grounding ClearStream 2V

[Bsean0714]

I have a ClearStream 2V roof mount with a 4 way Channel Master Amplified splitter. I have grounded the channel master at the ground but what else to I need to do to protect my house from lightning? Also, I have installed at top of roof pitch, does that make it any more likely to be struck (probably stupid question)?

Ground the mast as per this instruction: https://www.antennasdirect.com/cmss_...nding-Info.pdf

With it being an actual roof mount, can I get a coated copper wire so it doesn't contact the roof and run it down along side the coaxial to ground?

Sure, if you can use an insulated wire if you wish. There's no technical reason to do so as either an insulated or non-insulated wire will perform the same.

I posted in another thread but it's a long thread and didn't know if anyone saw it. I have a channel master 4 way antenna and getting everything but Fox. It is in same direction as everything else but much weaker signal and to weak to overcome the Amplified splitter. Should I consider dropping the 4 way splitter, buying another antenna and running two, 2 way Amplified splitter?

Please keep that issue in the original thread, it is unrelated to the question in this one.

If you spread issues out over multiple threads, it becomes impossible for the discussion to remain coherent.
