Winegard HD7080P Instructions

HOW TO PROVIDE LIGHTNING
PROTECTION FOR TV ANTENNA
AND SET
Step 1. Mount the lightning arrestor
or 75 ohm coaxial grounding block
as close as possible to where the 75
ohm coaxial cable downlead enters
the house. See Figure 9.
Step 2. The ground wires for both
the mast and the downlead should
be copper or aluminum wire, number
eight (8) or larger. See Figure 9.
Step 3. The downlead wire from the
antenna to the lightning arrestor and
the mast ground wire should be se-
cured to the house, spaced from four
(4) to six (6) feet apart. See Figure 9.
NOTE: In the case of a "ground up"
antenna installation, it may not be
necessary to ground the mast if the
mast extends four or more feet int the
earth. Consult a TV serviceman for
the proper depth in your location.
