A storm blew up fast in Norcross crossing the river from the West.  The 
winds blew hard for a couple of minutes and the yard I had just picked up is 
again full of limbs and leaves.

The driven side of the KT-34XA boom is now about 10 degrees out of 
horizontal (the antenna still works fine)and one side of my 80 meter 
Carolina Beam (now called a short 80) broke off.  Should be no problem if 
the wire was not pulled out of the matching unit.  If it was it will take a 
replacement from Radio Works that cost me $50 a few years ago plus Radio 
Works moves quite slow on shipments.

Hope eveyone is safe and no other damage.
