Comments:
Had a terrible time sustaining rate this year. Just didn't feel as loud as
usual. Then power went out Saturday afternoon as Northern CA was belted by a
horrific storm. Winds as high as 134 MPH were clocked on nearby ridges. It
wasn't that fast at my place, but I lost a tree, a vertical and five days of
power. When I finally secured the premises and lowered the tower the rest of the
way, there were only two hours left in the contest. Finished up with generator
power. Man-made noise was blissfully absent during those two hours as power was
out all around me. Only managed about 14 hours of operating. The good news is
that my new tower and horizontal antennas survived the snow, wind and ice just
fine.
