supporting structure, grounding of the lead-in wire to
an antenna discharge unit connection to the ground-
ing electrodes, and requirements for the grounding
electrode. (See Fig. 1 on reverse side for an example).
15. Lightning
For added protection for this
product during a lightning
storm, or when product is left
