I believe that any Doctor that has prescribed placebos are "Quacks of the worst kind." I suffered from such quacks for 20 odd years for a lung infection, it took a young newly registered doctor that took his Hippocratic Oath serious to Diagnose, prove, and treat a fungal infection. It is no wonder so many so called doctors do not want patients to see their records.

A lightning strike on a TV transmitter tower = off the air for some time. It cannot be fixed with power on or in high winds. A lightning strike on a radar transmitter = carry on regardless. One decent sunspot storm= TV down. One decent sunspot storm= radar still works maybe with reduced cover. I could go on all night with other reasons. The folk that come up with this dumb idea only have dollars in mind sod the safety of the public.
