I unplug all my incoming antenna lines (etc.) at my window patch panel. However, prior to plugging the ant lines back in later, I short the center to the shield briefly in the off chance the antenna

You'll find that just unplugging the antenna's is only partly protective. Sometimes ligning just appears out of the blue, in any case you may not have heard the first few lightnings until it is close

Charles, I think discharging the antenna is a good idea. We do it when using large 1 wave around horizontal loops, but we actually put on continuous discharge networks of 100 kohm resistors, 2 watts.

If you park a shorted connector on each one, no static could build up. I've seen SO-239 flash over from static when not shorted. Raised me out of my chair the first time I heard that snap. A suitable

Or shunt the feed with a shorted quarter wave of transmission line, probably coax. Bleeds all the DC. Costs more than 2 watt resistors though and makes the antenna single band. 73, Jerry, K0CQ ______
