Gary's advice is excellent. I live in a very dry climate and in the
summer I can draw a hear the snapping of an arc from the center
conductor to the ring of a PL-259 connector connected to an unused
vertical antenna. Use some means of continuously draining the ESD
voltage from your coax. ICE makes a lightning suppressor that does
this or you can configure an RF choke or even a simple non-inductive
resistor from the center conductor to ground to drain off the charge.
