In general, MORE and SHORTER bonding paths are better.  It is also best 
to make keep the shortest bonding path outside the house if that is 
practical.  The rule is that we can have as many earth connections as we 
like, more is better, but ALL grounds must be bonded together. That 
includes power, antenna entry, ham shack operating desk, telephone 
entrance (the lightning protector), cable TV entry, satellite, lightning 
rods, etc.

And, of course, the "green wire" in every AC outlet should be carried 
through to every equipment chassis, and there should be a bond between 
every chassis, and that combination of bonds is the "shack" ground.
