> Some weird things going on at my station. My across the street neighbor's front yard tree took a direct hit from lightning middle of last week.
> When I turned SteppIR control unit on for my Sundays skeds, it was inoperative; fortunately I had a spare control board and all is now A-OK. Three IC's and power supply capacitor were zapped!
> My KAT-500 shows “Fault’ and the SWR 4 & 5 Led’s are lit as are the “on/off, auto, & bypass Led’s” and all Antenna Led’s.
> My K-3/100 turned on fine today showing 14.215 and, as I tuned down the band, it froze at 14.209; I turned it off and waited a minute or so and when I turned it back on, the screen is blank and the on/off switch doesn't work.
> The P3 and KPA-500 seem to be unaffected.
> Any idea where I should start?
