    My experience has been that, as long as *all* of the coaxes have 
enough ground kits on them as they ascend the tower, such that none 
of them can have circulating currents in their outer conductors that 
become significant, the coaxes are not a problem.  Since I'm dealing 
with this exact symptom at a site recently added to my list, I'll 
have more to report in a few weeks.  

    Of course, tower light wiring that *is not in conduit* can be a 
similar problem, and has been for me at more than one site.
