Re: [IRCA] TPs on Nov 16 from Lubec, Maine



Perhaps....and you get all the nasty weather also.

On the other side of the continent, no DX, but some idle leaf raking in 54F sunshine, with light breezes. More suitable for normal folks indeed. Very bland...

Hmmm ? maybe it really IS a ?zero sum? game ? we can?t both have good DX at the same time?! ;-)

I?m getting payback now as I struggle through gale-force winds driving a nasty mix of wintry stuff to take down the 115 deg. DKAZ to have one less thing to do tomorrow. Oh yea, it had already blown down anyway ? not just collapsed masts but ?blown down? still erect but horizontal. Tie wraps busted clean off. After I warm up and dry off a bit I?m going out to finish and try to put the 35 deg. [?TP Magic?] antenna back up. It?s just de-telescoped.

Fingers crossed ? as soon as they thaw out.
