Salutations -- I'm trying to arrive at the most appropriate grounding and lightning protection solution for an 80m dipole at my small residence. The house electrical system ground is at the opposite

Hi, David; Lightning protection is achieved by minimizing differences among all the conductors associated with the station (or computer or other equipment or person). Start by minimizing ddifferences

Most people on this reflector are used to thinking in terms of grounding towers, not dipoles. The same rules apply to dipoles, but there is another problem with dipoles that puts it into the hard pil

The dipole can be protected as effectively as other ungrounded antennas. Of course, the antenna, being at a higher elevation than other station components and utility lines, is certainly a target of

..."If the Feedline is #12 or larger copper, it will carry the current of 90% of strikes and will fail open in the rest."... -- If you believe this, you haven't seen many lightning strikes. If a #12
