I got a email from my electric company. They said there was a power outage
where I live last night, and this morning when running down to the street
for the bus, there were two electric trucks, I didn't have time to ask as
the bus was due in five minutes.
I'll have to shut off one side of the breaker box to see if it duplicates
the problem last night. I could still have partial electricity if one of
the 230 VAC legs went down, I'd have either the right half or the left half
of the breaker box (each side of the 230 VAC is 115 VAC, they use one leg
for half the house, the other half for the other half of the electric
load.) It still was funny that the power outage prompted me to listen on
Internet to KPH just in time for the Benediction of CW.
I liked it better when it was the Divine signal from someone who loves KPH.
But I still heard the final blessing. DA used to do such a nice job
sending that.
Here is DA (Denice Stoops, KI6BBR (Big Bad Radio), DA, ex RCA at KPH)
sending the Final Benediction for Night of Nights XI - which was nine years
ago. https://youtu.be/RYhrSEERvbI I love Denice's parents, they made her
name DE NICE. To remind others how nice she is. She has a divine fist,
bangles and all.
