Good point! I didn't actually mean as the T'storm is raining electrons
on you, but if the Triple Mega Viper Doppler Radar on the TV (don't
laugh, we have those here in the Colonies, we've come a long way since
Boston Harbor ... or maybe not) says it's about to be over you in 15
minutes, head for the basement and forget about the rig.

Disconnect your K2. Disconnect all your gear. Unplug it from the surge

Fred,
I agree on the first two, but not the third.
If I see thunderstorms predicted, or I predict a
local one myself, I will disconnect all my equipment.
During a thunderstorm, which your third statement
suggests, I will never do. I'd rather my radios
fry than me.
