12 Outdoor Antenna Grounding -- If an outside antenna or cable system is
connected to the video product, be sure the antenna or cable system is grounded so as
to provide some protection against voltage surges and built-up static charges. Section

EXAMPLE OF ANTENNA GROUNDING
13 Power Lines -- An outside antenna system should not be located in the vicinity of
overhead power lines or other electric light or power circuits, or where it can fall into
such power lines or circuits. When installing an outside antenna system, extreme care
should be taken to keep from touching or approaching such power lines or circuits as
contact with them might be fatal. Installing an outdoor antenna can be hazardous and
should be left to a professional antenna installer.
