[TowerTalk] Attach tower to house?

[Alan Beagley]

One of the participants in this forum told me -- in personal email, not 
in a public message -- that his insurance co. insisted that his tower 
must be attached (by whatever means he could devise) to the house.

Now a participant in the rec.radio.amateur.antenna newsgroup has 
reported that his insurance co. refused to insure his tower if it was 
connected to the house (coax des not count).

Which is the norm? Or does it depend on the whim of the insurance co.?
