To my chagrin, I will not be on this weekend for NAQP CW....one of my favorite contests. Newton, Kansas got hit with a hugh ice storm and I have been out of power since Tuesday. The TH6DXX is sagging...the tower is loaded with ice still...and the dipoles are busted up. I have a lot of tree damage too. Ice is still hanging everywhere since the temp is just 29 degrees. I hope I do not loose the tower. Tomorrow should warm up, but I ll miss the event because of no power. I don;t know when it will be on again. Some sources say another 5 days. Newton looks like it has gone through a war.
73 and have fun guys
