I don't think the antenna mast would be the first priority. Rigging the 
charges would take quite some time and considering the location of 
Alaska, that time isn't really there. Besides, having the antenna mast 
wired up with charges is not very wise. Taking a run with a few charges 
to the supporting wire fundaments would suffice.

Cheers,
Magnus
