[TWIAR] This Week in Amateur Radio delay

Due to God smiting upon George Bowen, a lightning strike earlier this 
week at TWIAR HQ in New York has caused issues and there will be a delay 
in getting edition #747 out tonight.

George is having to wait for the DSL folks to arrive to change out a 
proprietary fuse that he cannot bypass.

In order to get the scripts out to the anchors to read, he had to have a 
big mac attack and go to a McDonalds with WiFi to send out the info.

Once he gets the service reinstated, he'll commence to putting the show 
together.  Pat in Hawthorne (comptroller for the satellite feed live at 
9PM) will get first priority.

Once that is done, the usual productions will be done.  Late tonight, 
early tomorrow ETA.  This is subject to change if there are continued 
delays.  Affiliates may want to have a "best of" edition ready to air 
over their local repeaters or stations if the files are not ready in time.

The web site is changed over, but the links are dead until the files are 
uploaded.  I will upload the podcast once I get the file.

We regret any inconvenience this may cause.  Talk to the deity or 
deities of choice if you have any questions about lightning prevention.  :-)
