There's this thing called an "antenna", no?
If you didn't have a lightning arrester on a serious antenna: oops. Now you get to collect on your insurance, I hope.
Note that cheap surge suppressors have a finite lifetime. Spikes will destroy them over time, and they must be replaced. Even so, a direct lightning strike will probably get through them. That's beyond their provinence.
Alternatively, build a Farraday cage around your abode.
