Somewhere I read that the Real {Statistical}
Danger comes from the 1/4th Mile of Electrical
Power Grid around your Home/Building and not
so much from your own the Antenna Wire and
Ground System. More Equipment is Damaged due
to AC Power Line Surges; then EMF/ESD via the
Antenna Wires. -?-now-is-that-true-?-

Three Steps To A Safe Radio Shack Before &
During a Lighting Storm :

# 1 Job = Un-Plug the Radios & Equipment
from the AC Mains -first-

# 2 Job = Disconnect the Antenna Wire(s)

# 3 Job = Keep Everything in the Radio
Shack Well Grounded.

=P/S= Stay Inside Yourself -cause- the Real
{Statistical} Danger is about 1000-to-1 of
getting Hit by Lightning 'Outside' then "IN"

and so... now you know . . .
cause you read it here ~ RHF
