Are You Prepared for Lightning? - Radio World
Are You Prepared for Lightning? It can strike anywhere, in any month of the year Make it part of your routine to check ground connections like this UFER ground. The worst lightning damage I ever saw happened in the month of February; and it was, in more than one sense, a perfect storm. We were in the process of upgrading our Detroit FM facility, replacing a 1985-vintage Continental 27.5 kW transmitter with a much newer version of the same transmitter. The aux had long been an RCA BTF20, and our chief engineer had pulled it out of service in preparation for installing the new rig.
