Dealing with Lightning

For a POE Bridge device on a 10 foot mast, anyone have good ideas for a home-made lightning arrester-ones I've seen advertised seem awfully expensive for what should be a simple device. Mostly, I am concerned about damage to my computer and to the house. The ones I have seen advertised are way too expensive, imo. Will a straight wire from top of mast to good ground be a step in the right direction? How do I ground the POE? I am not THAT about the radio being killed as I am about my computer, house. What's a positive ground? _________________________________________ Usenet Zone Free Binaries Usenet Server More than 140,000 groups Unlimited download
