On one of my rare Saturday days off I gave the net a try, multiple problems of course would show up. The band was not happy, I could not hear Pete at all, I moved all my gear into my son's vacated room recently and never thought about updating the outlets, still on a 15A circuit, when I was tx and typing on the M28 it blew the house panel breaker. I hastily ran an extension cord for the M28 to another room and that fixed that issue but could not overcome band conditions. The M28 was surging(before I lost power as well) and acting like it had an internal bad connection, if I tapped the outside of the cabinet it did the same thing so that needs investigation. I switched over to the MITE for the final minute or so.
I did copy Nick, Ron and W1SIM who was solid most of the time and I did see where he said he copied me.
