Seems to me that lightning protection for timenuts who put things on
masts keeps this from being completely off topic.
People who store explosives in earthen bunkers have learned from many
years of experience how far away bunkers have to be spaced so than an
explosion in one bunker won't affect
Well one time nut did. Think its John and a ham K5??? call.
He wrote the process up using an external supply.
Thats why I have a 3KV supply on the shelf.

Hi
If indeed a proper ground system *could* be depended on to “bleed off” and

would be *much* simpler. Indeed I’ve been on towers and decided to exit that
location as the bleed
process became audible. It very much does happen. It simply is not a 100% sort
of thing.
I put my GPS antenna only as high as it needed to be to clear any
accumulation of snow in the winter, so it is about 3 feet above the
peak of the roof of the house and about 19 feet above ground level.
The 8-inch ground-plane under the puck antenna is grounded to my radio
ground. No other
Probably the easiest and most economical grounding system is the halo ground
with antenna grounds bonded to the halo and the house ground bonded to the halo
as well.
The halo conductor sizing is governed by local codes, But really what you are
doing ensuring that the entire structure and
The 18” inch requirement is partially for damage resistance and partially to
ensure adequate soil moisture for conductivity.

The cable to ground rod welds are to be 18 inches below grade.
The exterior cable is to be number 2 copper or larger.
