Hello All,

As I get closer to executing my antenna project I come up with more questions.  
This one has to do with grounding the antennas and mast to the tower.  I have a 
chrome moly mast that is painted.  At the top will be a 2 element 40 and just 
above the tower will be a TH-7.  How would you bond the grounding between the 40 
meter beam and mast, th7 to mast and mast to tower?  I'm concerned about 
maintaining an effective ground that won't corrode or weather.

Thanks all - w5ww

P.S.  I will repost all replies.
