Hi All, I've got a question related to this discussion. I'm putting a DirecTV dish up at my house & the thing obviously needs to be grounded in case it gets hit bu lightning. There are several possible locations for the dish, one of them on the side of my house near my breaker box (which the builder STUPIDLY put outside the house!) and house's earth ground. Any other location would require that the dish either (a) have its own ground, or (b) have a cable run to the house's ground. Keeping in mind that the dish will have one or more coax cables running to expensive stuff in the house, where would y'all put the dish & how would you ground it? Thanks! -matt -- http://www.piclist.com hint: To leave the PICList mailto:piclist-unsubscribe-request@mitvma.mit.edu
