EMP hardening:
Soldering metal oxide varistors (MOV) inside /short wave radios/scanners/ham radios/ transmitters/TVs/ any electronics etc etc etc is a lot more protection from EMP than just a power strip/surge/spike protector containing MOVs
A MOV acts much much faster than any fuse/breaker/switch can.
Electrical cords/wires between the surge/spike/whatever strip protector and the device itself can act as an antenna. receiving and directing/carrying/conducting the pulse into the electronic device, so MOVs inside a device offer much more protection than just a strip protector does
Zener Diodes and Faraday Cages can help too.
Just search EMP hardening.
Most stuff is readily available at Radio Shack
Even lightning nearby creates an EMP, you don't have to wait until a bomb goes off to benefit from EMP hardening, and it's cheap.
But, I wouldn't trust just a surge protector type strip :fie: :no:
