I use an Ohmite MOX-1-123004F across the feed of each of my antennas.  This 
is a 3-megohm 2.5W thick-film leaded resistor rated at 10KV breakdown.  It 
is essentially invisible up to at least 450 MHz (looking at it with an 
AIMuhf) when placed across an antenna feed.  It is $5.30 in unit quantities 
and is available from www.mouser.com, part number 588-MOX-1-123004F.
