Sure, but someone suggested that maybe my recent lightning strike had
gotten it. When in use, it was lying on the ground at least 300 feet
from my transmit antennas and tower. Also, winter is not lightning
season here, and my RX antennas aren't deployed during the spring and
summer. I'm much more inclined to think some combination of moisture
and thermal cycling - perhaps even freezing - may have been responsible.
