Around 30 years ago at around 2am we had a local strike to the church tower 100 yards away. I was in bed, fast asleep and I swear that either due to the noise or the impulse, I jumped completely clear of the mattress. The tower had lightning protection, but it had blown out by the strike and it had tracked inside the tower, blowing plaster off the walls. Here it destroyed my expensive 1m steerable sat dish and receiver, a dial-up modem (but no damage to the PC it was plugged into) and took many phone lines in the village out. BT spent weeks repairing the damaged lines, but our Trimphone survived. I had various radio antennas up with receivers and transmitters plugged in, but none were damaged.
