How about a lead, carbon lined steel box? Your solid-state devices are going to get fried with an EMP strike. Doesn't matter if they are powered or not or your rig is grounded or not.
Space and military systems like RAD hard tested devices, when they can get them. Also, some of the commercial airline manufacturers are getting involved with RAD hard devices. Want a shock - get pricing on a JANS RAD hard device. Even without the RAD spec you will get shocked. JANTX and TXV aren't as bad but still pricey. 73, N2TK, Tony -----Original Message----- From: elecraft-boun...@mailman.qth.net [mailto:elecraft-boun...@mailman.qth.net] On Behalf Of Bill Maddock Sent: Saturday, March 14, 2009 2:43 PM To: elecraft@mailman.qth.net Subject: [Elecraft] Your thoughts on EMP and protecting K3/K2 With things ramping up internationally and talk of possibility of either nucleur strike or dirty bombs, what would be best way of protecting our gear? I know that the radios are pretty tight for keeping signals out and I have a very good ground system here. What else can be done to protect our gear.
