[TenTec] CORSAIR I (tick,tick,tick...)

[Michael O. Hyder]

Had a problem with an electric fence.  When brush grows up against the
fence, the fence charger goes into a "Weed Burning" mode and tries to zap
the brush.  The farmer and I walked the perimeter of the fence and found
several places where the brush was on the fence.  I told him that it could
lessen the effectiveness of his fence and that his horses might get out.
Within an hour he was out with a bushhog and made quick work of the brush
... and my QRN.
