I have mine mounted outside the shack directly on a BUSS bar going to the
ground ring. (Which is also tied into the tower ring)
I also have BUSS bars at the bottom of each tower with ground kits on all
coax going to the common ring.

This is how we do cell sites and we take hits each day in Florida and
survive.

My new tower is 200 feet from my new (unbuilt) shack.  Should I put the
polyphasers at the tower in the NEMA box or at the shack in the NEMA box or
does it not matter.  There is a ground cable between the two and I'll have a
SPG when complete.
 
Thanks.

Larry, KN8N
