The disconnect method is fine if you're always at home and you're not
serious about a contest that might be running or trying to to snag #310
when a storm approaches...but otherwise, it's nice to have a backup plan.
If I was going to rely on a disconnect system, it would probably be a
one button solution of some sort, cuz if it's not easy, you won't do it
on a regular basis.

I used to pull all plugs and disconnect all antennas but had a problem
because I left the equipment grounded and strike came over phone line

too.

My solution is to pull all AC plugs from the wall and disconnect all
antennas whenever a storm is coming. That pretty much takes care of most
problems.
