Received. Recently, I purchased a shortwave radio and antenna (GP) and have been experimenting with setting it up on the roof in recent weeks. The results have been good.
Currently, I plan to mount the antenna on the roof. Due to signal loss, I don't connect the feeder cable to the second floor of my house; instead, I carry the radio up to the roof. However, this presents a significant problem: I won't be able to implement any lightning protection measures.
Because my apartment building is a six-story old complex, I don't think it has any lightning protection (unlike the newer high-rise buildings next door, but I'm not sure if this one does), and combined with the built-in lightning diversion properties of my GP radio, it makes me worry that a storm could ruin my shortwave listening dreams.
So, I can only turn to the experienced guy I remember from my old "Frog CQ" forum. If you have any useful anti-static measures, please share them in the comments.
Sixth floor. Is it really necessary to do this? Also, I saw someone putting money under the radio to deter QBG, but that seems a bit too expensive and relies on superstition. (whispering)
