Would it be posable to design the ALEX so that at least one inductor
is<BR>> on the antenna side of any device that needs protection. An
inductor<BR>> would filter out any fast raise time in the impulse and store
it's<BR>> energy<BR>> which then can be dissipated more slowly. In
other words a low pass<BR>> filter is already designed to shunt high
frequency energy to ground<BR><BR><BR><BR>Might be a problem getting the right
impeadance versus current handleing on<BR>the low bands. It was not unknowen
for front end coils to blow in AR88`s and<BR>HRO's due to static even with
their battleship dimensions.<BR>Shel
