[Lowfer] Wm beacons

[Bill Ashlock]

Jon,

Thanks for the quick reply. Good to know that Andover Beacon (the stronger upper one) is working. I didn't have much time to determine that my repair didn't mess up something else as I made a hasty departure for the north country. (There's actually twice as much snow down there, however)

On Wednesday I found the high winds on in Andover on Sunday had pulled out a crimp-on from one of the loop conductors. The Ellsworth beacon appears to be doing OK according to the DC input current measurement in the shack. This goes to re-enforce the belief that soldering these lugs is the only way to go.
