[OKDXA] Ice

[Coy Day]

Jim,

Just picked up some of the ice that came off the broken element and it
varies in thickness but is up to 3/4 inch.  Since it isn't going to get
above freezing and there is more on the way, I don't think sublimation is
going to do the job.  ;-)

I'm surprised that the full sized rotatable dipole that I built recently
is holding together.  It is bowed so bad that the ends of the elements are
vertical.  Strange that it hasn't broken.  Just a matter of time, I
suppose.

I'm in a zone that usually gets a lot of ice.  Have no idea why.  I'm
afraid that if I moved, the zone would go with me.

You guys stay warm...

Coy
