[Lowfer] " XR " ant. & XMTR fixes

[Andy - KU4XR]

Hey everyone:  It feels strange looking at the LOWfer output meter
and never seeing it move, and then remember, it's off the air !!
During the Snow & Ice melee', evidently the SWR went skyhigh and
blew out one of my transistors. I replaced it, but when I turn it
on, ( even into a dummy load ), the PA current quickly starts to
rise. So I'm thinking that 1 or more of the diodes have shorted.
If all goes well, I hope to get the XMTR repaired, and the ant.
back up by this week end. Looking for high temps in the 60's on
Sat. and Sun. Still cold for now, and the HF ant's, are drooping,
but the ice is beginning to melt. At least they stayed up !!
73; and good LOWfer-ing::
