Re: IMD Meter
I would spend the money on a better antenna if your able to with HOA’s etc.Money would be better spent. You can always adjust your equipment to makea better cleaner signal for no cost.

Re: Air as an insulator ...
Actually dry air is a pretty good insulator... dielectric strength is about 3 kV / mm
Polyethylene is at least 6 times better. Diamond is 2 MV / mm!

IMD Meter
I was reading the recent discussion concerning the IMD meter, getting on the list for one, and the cost.
It sounds like a very good idea, however, even at that price ($155) it'll be a stretch for me

Mike, the map on the referenced website shows a lot of activity in the center of Africa.
Not where I expected to see that most.
Very interesting...and good reading.

You are perfectly making my point spot on… If air is such a great insulator, what will prevent the lightening from jumping a 1” gap of a glass fuse?
