[Elecraft] static charges

[Scott McDowell]

Hello
I live at 3600 feet altitude on the Texas high plains where it is extremely dry, 
and
we have a lot of wind. And lots of static eletricity. I have static charges jump 
as
much as 3/4 of an inch to my hands daily, and usually several times a day.
How can I protect my transceivers from this. I keep them grounded and the 
antennas disconnected when not being used. but sometimes I believe this attracks 
the static charges. I also keep them disconnected when not
being used
How can I protect the rigs from static???
