[K3PZN-List] subject storms last night

[Ray Wright]

Hi Pete

so both radios were hooked up to two separate alinco power supplies which
were also hooked up to two other radios.   Just now we think we have found
out where the surge came from the doublet up at 100 ft shows signs of a hit
of some sort wires are melted.  still have good swr's on the antenna    But
yeah Pete didnt we have the k3 in the RV last year?
