I've got a W3EDP at our vacataion QTH. The current setup is very temporary;
the wires come together at a nice spot on the upstairs patio where I
hook up to my KX1.
But winter is coming and I want to feed the signals inside. I have a nice
steel box and DPDT knife switch to act as ground disconnect. I bought
some electric fence spark gaps to provide some lightning protection.
I was planning to 1M 1/2W resistors across the gaps as a bleed ... but
now I'm thinking that I should use a choke instead?
There seem to be lots of differing opions on this :-)
