[TowerTalk] Coax Grounding

[Timothy A. Holmes]

As I am rebuilding the tower, I want to install proper (or at least 
reasonably proper) lightning grounding on my coax lines.

My impression of what I have read over the years is that I need a ground 
stake near the enterence to the shack with gas discharge tubes on it for 
each line of coax.  Right? wrong? totally out to sea?

Is there something else I can / should be doing without totally breaking 
the bank? (Yes, I know whatever it is is cheaper than replacing the 
house, but im talking REASONABLE risk (The tower will be shorter than 
the surrounding trees))

Also, what type / brand of discharge tubes should I use, I notice a 
disparity in price -- Again, I want to be reasonable -- As noted, I am 
near DXE and would prefer to use their stuff as I can pick it up and 
save shipping


Thanks
