No, *ALL* electronics are sensitive to this, including the stuff in your washers, dryers, refrigerators, air conditioners.
The amount of induced voltage from a "distant" lightning strike can literally throw you across the room, minus your shoes. Ask my son in law. It was induced voltage from a strike a quarter mile away. Most of the prevention discussions and equipment relate to induced voltages. A direct strike does pretty much what it wants to regardless of what prevention you have in. 73, Guy On Wed, Sep 7, 2011 at 10:13 PM, KC6CNN <[email protected]> wrote: > I have read several post about something burning out due to close by > lightning. > I have not heard of this many before. > My question is because of the high sensitivity of the receivers are the > elecraft's prone to this? > > > > -- > View this message in context: > http://elecraft.365791.n2.nabble.com/question-about-Elecraft-receivers-tp6770258p6770258.html > Sent from the Elecraft mailing list archive at Nabble.com. > ______________________________________________________________ > Elecraft mailing list > Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft > Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm > Post: mailto:[email protected] > > This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net > Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html > ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:[email protected] This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html
