[TowerTalk] Building entry

[Roger (K8RI) on TT]

And how can you not tie the tower ground to the entry panel?  The coax 
shield(s) are tied to the tower at top and bottom. They are then tied to 
the CPG at the entry panel. I have 3 LMR-600 plus 2 BuryFkex cables from 
the tower to the entry panel ans polyphasers.

It's true that you don't need an "extra" ground cable, but were mine 
farther from the house as in the case of the LM470 which ties into the 
overall ground system there are still lots of #2 ground cables tied 
together.
