Hi All

I have a tower trailer - motorized three twenty foot telescoping sections. 
I have a Force 12 C3SS on top that is working well.  Currently there is no 
earth ground connect to the tower - just a lot of metal (trailer and a small 
(7' x 7' x Trailer width' metal skinned shop/storage room built onto the 
tower trailer).  In your learned opinion, would I benefit from installing a 
minimum of three 8 - 10 foot grounding rods - bonded with a #4 solid copper 
wire or grounding strap loop and the loop connected to each leg of the 
tower,

Your comments will be very much appreciated.
