So I was thinking. And I don’t know if this is a pointless idea or not. Lightning strikes happen because of potential differences. Besides the instances where equipment is blown up (direct strike) usually what I see is indirect strike where the Ethernet port of the radios just dries but there is no physical damage visible.
Obviously the radio into the tower became a better path than the shielding of the cable into the ground system. Would there be any merit to running tower sites in generator and disconnecting them from the grid during severe storms? -- AF mailing list [email protected] http://af.afmug.com/mailman/listinfo/af_af.afmug.com
