Comments:

Our usual M/2 operation was cancelled by Mother Nature's ice storm across
Oklahoma at the last minute.  Luckily, there is no serious damage to the
aerials (yet), but our roads are simply treacherous.  I decided to get on and
make as many q's as possible.  The antennas have about 3/8" of ice on them and
SWR averaged 3:1.  The NW beverage had fallen to the ground and was under 2" of
sleet.  The rotor was stuck East.  I had to stop 10 or more times for 5-10
minutes each while a wave of freezing rain/sleet passed over.  It would put the
S meter on +30 and keep it there.  Apologies to those I could not copy or had to
give up on.  We are lucky though, as there does not appear to be much serious
damage, and we only lost power briefly for 4 periods.  We'll be back.
73, Ken K5KA
