[1000mp] More info on MkV blown front end.

[lhlousek]

I have a Polyphaser DC blocked ESD protector where the line enters the =
house as well as several MFJ coax switches with discharge tubes and the =
front end was still damaged.   AND this was not caused by lightning.  It =
was due to precipitation static during a very light drizzle. =20

  Hello Lou,

  Yes, a protection scheme would be very interesting!

  I use a HyGain Lightning Arrestor LA-2 (for a picture have a look at =
my site
  at 'te koop') before every HF-rig I have, to prevent such troubles. =
Like the
  saying is: "Prevention is better then cure".
