Comments:

Well, we had an experience that we would imagine would be what would happen if
there was an EMP event.  We lost essentially everything in the station except
one radio and one amplifier in what we believe was a lightning hit.  We don't
know when it happened, but we had quite a scramble to get on the air at all, and
ended up with our main antennas not working.  We think that the coax going up
the tower to the stack match on the C3x3 stack may have been hit and is
resistive - but not shorted out.

We had the radio blackout at about 1800z on Sunday.

We have some work to do for sure.
