For those who might not be aware of it yet, long-time
contester John Crovelli W2GD/P40W sustained an injury when a 30’ tower he
was working on in Maine fell with him on it. He has sustained some
serious injuries but is expected to make a full recovery eventually. I
talked to the hospital (Maine Medical Center in Portland, ME a few minutes ago
and John is still in the Special Care unit (apparently the same as ICU) but
they have very little information at this time on how long he will be there
before being moved. There are no phones in those rooms (which is probably
because John is mainly a CW op) but I am sure info will filter out soon.
You can find more details in the towertalk@contesting.com archives
for today.
