I also live in FL with frequent thunderstorms. I just disconnect power and antenna lines. I don't have grounds between equipment. I leave everything else connected. If I had to unplug, I would do it on the computer end. Just me...

I must disconnect my K3 often due to frequent thunder storms here in Florida. I find that using the cables going to the two DIN plugs as supports has helped. I haven't yet tied the 4 cables together with tie-wraps, but will do so when my troubles escalate further. The jacks look like common stuff and ought be available in the UK.
