Sorry to hear it, Coy. I just wish you had not sent it across the state line into Arkansas. After watching the antennas on my HF tower sag worse and worse all day, just about an hour ago when the 40 mtr beam went down, it took the KT34XA with it along with the 160 mtr vertical. Beverages were all down this morning. Oh well. I survived the one ice storm 2 years ago and the one 6 years ago.....guess I was due, but after just now recovering from a catastrophic lightning hit this past summer, I'm starting to believe God is telling me to do something else! So far, the VHF tower and the UHF/Microwave tower along with the 5 meter and 7 meter EME dishes are still OK, but the freezing rain has started again here now........ 73 Joel W5ZN -----Original Message----- From: Coy Day [mailto:n5ok.ok@worldnet.att.net] Sent: Wednesday, December 04, 2002 4:32 PM To: arrl-odv Subject: [ARRL-ODV:8024] Ice Storm Just a note to let you know that my six meter beam survived. (So far) Everything else is in pieces. I'll try to upload some jpg's to my web site when I get power back. Had to get out in the cold and start the generator early this morning to get the heat on. Brrrr! I'm thinking about moving to far south Texas. 73, Coy ...........
