I know what you mean about hurricanes and antennas.
I am going to put up a new g5rv this Saturday.
But here comes Hurricane Gustav.
I don't want the new antenna torn up right off the bat.
I live about 50 miles north of Apalachicola Fl.

Ok, just looking for some ideas.  I am in Louisiana and there exists a slig=
ht chance that we could be affected by a hurricane early next week.  I have=
a Butternut 6v up in the yard.  I wonder if it would be better to take it =
down and lay it on the ground so it doesn't get beat around by the wind.  T=
he only problem with that is I am afraid something will land on it and ruin=
it.  The only other option I have is to bring it in the house if we evacua=
te.  I am not really sure if it will fit inside.
