Re: [IRCA] Radio (Part Thirty-Eight)

["Ira Elbert New, III" <ien3@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Thanks for noticing the hard work I've been putting in lately. A few weeks 
ago, I was worried that I'd heard everything from this locale barring new 
equipment, but I have heard some new things recently. I hope to hear more 
once I get an antenna up for my Drake R8B.

Say...what do you use for lightning protection up there? I've been meaning 
to ask you since you're close by and we experience some of the same weather. 
How is your antenna grounded, radio, shack, etc? I have lost two rigs to 
lightning over the years here in Watkinsville and my wife will kill me if I 
let another go. Plus we have a new home and I don't want to lose it either! 
Give me some feedback when you get the time.

Cheers!

Bert
