Not a video, but slides for my talk on the topic at Pacificon, Visalia, 
and to several large clubs. Slides include drawings of several ways to 
do it right, and also explain a lot of the why it's critical to follow 
these practices, which are also required by Electrical Codes.

And/or buy N0AX's excellent ARRL book on the topic, to which I 
contributed extensively.

Don't let the word "audio" in the title fool you -- it's all about 
lightning protection and RFI, both radiating and receiving noise, and 
"RF in the shack."
