I've seen a few tower installations with feedlines were mounted on the out side of the tower instead of inside. From what I've read and heard all cabling should go up the inside, Right?! The case whe

There are several considerations, but addressing the lightning issue for coax attached to the outside of a tower: There is no lightning issue if you ground the shield of the coax at the top, close to

the The ONLY reason IMO to run cable up the inside of a tower is that the tower acts as a Faraday shield for lightning strikes, so if you live in a lightning prone area it might be worth doing. Other

Please 'splain to me why coax shields should be grounded at the top of the tower in addition to at the bottom. I understand at the bottom, to shunt the voltage to the tower and its grounding grid, bu

I'll try keep it short: The amateur radio "rule of thumb" is as I have stated in my post - Using a ground kit (or equivalent), ground the coax to the tower at the top (or close to the antenna) and at

Another reason to run all lines inside towers is if you plan to shunt feed them on 80 or 160. This may also require grounding the hardline periodically so voltages do not develop between the coax and
