I also have gas discharge lightning protection here. It's probably not going to save anything with a direct (or even nearly so) hit, but it will keep the static from building up too much. Anyway, I haven't lost any equipment yet.

I have the gas tube lightening arrestors on my EFHW antenna. So far, so good...

Wow! I¡¯ve alsways wondered about putting some lightning arrestors for my wire antennas but never have. Perhaps it¡¯s time to do so. Curious anyone on the list do this w their wire antennas? My prob is that antenna enters home from third floor loft window and hard to run a long grounding wire to earth.

I am thinking that a close by lightning strike introduced a little bit of a voltage into the connection where my coax goes to the vertical ?
