Hi,

To avoid the rumors about my 15m H Frame having crashed I posted pics to my
QRZ page on the 45m tower that crashed just after WPX in a storm. It carried
Optibeam monoband stacks and 3 elements on 80.

The culprit seems to be an unwound turnbuckle. Why did no one remind me of
safety loops?:( I know now.
