Somewhere, sometime, I saw an homebrew article for a lightning detector
which was based on some obscure valve/tube that had grid on the top
terminal.

A wire from the grid electrode ran to a porcelain isolator and from
there to the wire antenna, in order to get the highest possible
imput impedance.

I have no idea where I saw that article, but some HAM magazine or
possibly Elector about 10-20 years back is a good guess.

Never attribute to malice what can adequately be explained by incompetence.
