If my CB antenna was struck by lightning
what would happen? Ive got a 102" whip and didnt really think about it today while i was out taking pictures of the storm. there want any lightning at the time but after looking at the pictures it doesnt look to safe
 anyway, would it just be grounded and all would be fine other than a fried antenna? (i took my CB out cuz i kept kicking it  ) or would my jeep get messed up or even hurt me?

If lightning hit's your jeep, it has a pretty good chance of being fried. CB antenna or not.
It will fry all the wireing, computers and electronics if it hits it.

i think it would probably fry all your electronics. youd be fine i thinks, unless it struck right in front of you and you happen to be looking directly at it
