Sorry to hear about the lightning hit Dennis. I think that’s a right of passage for all DX to take a lightning hit.  we all have stories. Hope you get everything running quickly.

Calling CQ @ 50313...got them with my back-up ICOM 7610 radio and my Hex Beam at 60 watts...



Lightning Hit Assessment so far:



SteppIR Controller bit the dust...Not sure about antenna yet...



Flex 6600 bit the dust...



3 Green Heron Controllers bit the dust...



2 Yaesu Rotors bit the dust...



Beverage Antenna hardware bit the dust...



Lightning is a BAD thing for radio equipment...No telling how many other problems I'll find as I keep digging...



The DX Hog is NOT a Happy Camper...
