Topband: good condx agn in DL

[Mark Robinson]

I took my 8 circle receiving array down two weeks ago before it got 
blown up by the summer lightning. It has been blown up 3 times in the 
past three summers despite fitting coaxial relays to protect the antenna 
inputs. So now I have learnt to bring the amplifier boxes inside before 
the lightning gets under way with a vengeance.
