I have an Aviat radio on a tower where we took the other end of the link
down. It won't be coming back, but I don't have an immediate need to
move the link to another location. If I just power the radio down, and
leave it on the tower, do I have a potential risk to frying the radio
from lightening?
It's DC Powered, with a Cat5 and Fiber running to it. I may at some
point in the future throw a link to another location from this tower, so
I don't want to take it down, and then possibly have to put it up
again. But I don't want it to get fried just sitting up there.
Lightening does what it wants, but is it more attracted to things that
are running? Are powered up electronics more susceptible to damage?
