Comments:
Well I knew I was going to have a late start due to running a VE session at
1pm,
headed home after that and got to the QTH with 10 hrs left to operate, on
arrival home, no power... turns out that in the heavy rain we were having
someone left the road and took down a power pole abour 3 miles up the road.
Power company finally got a new pole up and restored power with about 3 1/2
hours left, didn't want to let the team down, so made the best of the worst
band conditions. 40 was almost unusable, 80 was just as bad, we had a severe
thunderstorm sitting about 15 miles off the coast and that was producing static
crashes at s9+40, so thanks a bunch to all that hung in with the say agains...
