I am going to have to place my dish out away from my house because I have too many tall trees blocking a good signal. I want to place a pole out in the corner of the yard and run all of the coax cable to it. What do I need to do in order to ground the dish? Any other advice on pole mounting a dish from experienced point of views is appreciated.
 
At the bottom right hand of this link is the info you need, you can buy cable that has a ground running along side but if you are planning on putting the cable under ground special waterproof cable should be used for this job, or run double the cable you need and if one run cuts out change to a spare run!

When Directv did our pole mount after we moved that used a green insulated copper wire run from the grounding blocks where the cables are plugged in, from there it runs underneath our overhang over to where our A/C compressor is, and it's screwed into the ground wire for it.
