Hi.

I'd like to be there, but there are a couple of potential problems.  First, 
the time occurs when my YL and I are usually eating supper, but even if 
that isn't an issue, the other problem is that the antennas were badly 
damaged in the December 28 windstorm.  I made some repairs tonight, but 
will need assistance for some of it.  What is still not known is how badly 
the G5RV was damaged when the tree came down.  Part of it came down across 
the feedline, and pulled it pretty taut, so it is conceivable that the 
feedpoint connection could have been broken by the sudden tug.  The SWR 
curves don't look normal, so I suspect something like that has happened.

I'll be on if I can, but no promises.

Oh, by the way, on the bright side, now that the tree came down, it opens 
up more space for antennas!

73, de Lou K2LKK
