[SECC] Wise Man Say.....

[Jeremy - W1BO]

Wise man say, when 80 meter antenna not working for contest. Make sure not
laying in pile on ground where storm blew down. - Now that was a smart man!
I absolutely feel stupid now that I figured out why the antenna wouldn't
work for the RTTY contest this weekend - it was laying on the ground in a
pile where the rope had rubbed itself against the limb and cut through it. 

 

Now mind you I finally decided to go outside and check after about 30
minutes of testing with the VNA, flash light in hand looking for a balun in
the air I found it when I tripped on it. 

 

It is going to be a LONG week! J
