No, it is what it says, for static discharge. It won't prevent

Ok thanks. Follow-up question then.......why do I want to get rid of the
static? What if I don't?
Thanks


It might only take a static charge of a few hundred volts to damage
components in your radio. If you don't, that depends, most people
don't use them. Disconnect and ground your cables when storms are
heading your way.
