Hello Pete: Just got my computer working again as we had no power in Dania
for at least 4 days. We got power back on Thurs. eve plus the phone service.
The beam on top of the hospital is shot, elements are gone and same with the
tower that held the 2m, no contacts. I lost about 30 small shingles, one
neighbor across the street from lost all his shingles, his roof is now
tarped. Trying to get in touch with Ron, hoping he can get over here as I
have replaceable shingles, its not a big job compared to others involved. My
pipe that held up the 2m on the side of my qth, snapped in half but the 2m
antenna is ok, can't use it anyway as we have no repeater on hospital. Sure
will be nice when we see you and hear from you once you get back home. No
meeting this coming Wed, maybe towards end of month when things settle down
a bit. Have a safe trip back home, and cul, shalom, Kappy
