Ernie, Can I suggest something better I think...  Go to the club web site
and go down the left hand frames until you see "Other Links".  Right under
that is a link to Industrial Communications Engineers...
The have 2 units that are front end protectors and one has lightning
protection.  There is no power requirement to run them. I have used one for
years and they work great.  I had lightning explode several of my beverage
boxes but my rx is still fine.  When you get to the ICE home page just click
on "RF Switchin Products".  You might look at their other products as they
have some really neat ones.  They have a lot of products for use with
beverages.  They have beverage matching box that has the matching along with
a bandpass filter and preamp built in.  Check them out..  73 Mike K4PI
