Not necessarily.
Uninformed homeowners might not know to ground the mast/boom/antenna
mount,or figure they can get by without it.

Grounding just the mast would automatically ground the whole
system regardless of a home owners understanding of the system.
Why? Because the boom, mount, coax outer shield, and mast
are all electrically the same. Grounding the mast as I stated,
would automatically ground everything. It's dummy proof.

my POINT was that they might not ground ANYTHING.
Just connect their coax and consider it done.
