Best Practices
1) Always try to run the Cat5 and LMR inside of the mounting pole wherever possible. This helps
to insulate the cable from any air surges.
2) Keep all runs as straight as possible. Never put a loop into the cables.
3) Test all grounds to ensure that you are using a proper Ground. If using a electrical socket for
Ground, use a socket tester, such as Radio Shack 22-141
4) Buy a copy of the National Electrical Code Guide and follow it.
5) If you are in doubt about the grounding at the location, drive your own rod and bond it to the
house ground. At least you will know that one rod is correct in the system.
