Attach a copper Single Point Ground (SPG) panel to wall studs before the dry
wall is installed. Have your electrician run the house ground wire near the
SPG panel and behind an access hole so you can make connection to it. See
PolyPhaser Web site for their SPG product.
If you're wiring your house for a computer LAN, install a CAT5 cable in the
shack.
Bury a 2 in. diameter minimum conduit from outside the shack to where you
intend to put your antenna farm. Invest in an electrician's fish tape for
pulling cable.
Install a whole-house power transient protector.
Install a telco lightning protector on the incoming phone line(s).
Good luck!
