Well I did everything right....I have a good grounding
system...PolyPhasers on the antenna leads.  Surge protection on the
power and everything was turned off.  But my tower took a near miss last
night (early this AM) by lightning and blew the outputs on the Astron
feeding all my radios.  All the other radios are okay but now I have to
trouble shoot my K2/100 and KAT100 with all the options.  Sucker lights
up but no sound and doesn't recognize the DSP board....OH Boy...looks
like I'll be busy this weekend.

But thank God for Protection Policy's.  My Wide Screen HDTV also
died....2 years old but has a 4 year protection policy...hoping they
can't fix it so they have to give me a new one.  



Already replace 1 NIC card, 1 DSL modem and have a 1/2 dozen other
things to fix.  Good thing I'm retired and have the time.

Well you all know where I'll be this weekend...right at the bench.
