AJAK and ASC1 noise

No I will set a new grounding rod next to the dish to attach the green wire off the motor.

Next, connect a wire from this ground rod at the dish and run back to the house and connect to the utility ground rod. This wire is called a bonding wire and it equalizes the voltage potential between the two grounding points.

Should I have a total of 2 ground points one jumped?

Dish to house ground, motor to ground next to dish jumped to ground point at house?

Typically a bonding wire connects between multiple grounding rods.

The motor is already mechanically attached to the dish, but an additional wire can bond the motor ground terminal to the pole or directly to a dish grounding rod. Most installers would attach a ground wire between the pole and structure ground. If the dish was located a considerable distance from the structure (or if installing in a high lightning activity region) a ground rod (or several ground rods) would also be installed at the dish, and bonded to the structure ground.
