But it is just what you count on. If I knew we would have such a heavy storm I would not install the beam like I did.<br /><br />@John, sometimes I wished I had just a indoor antenna like you....<br /><br />@Bert, die beam is te repareren. Maar is niet echt nodig, heb er nog een paar liggen :-)<br /><br />73, BasPE4BAS, Bashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12958141238330445285noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3676983452144254088.post-44077397251621211752012-01-08T20:28:39.669+01:002012-01-08T20:28:39.669+01:00Bas, dat is niet mis.

Weather is sure...Bas, sorry to hear of your damage! Weather is sure our enemy! I deal with winds on a regular basis and when I lived in the lower 48, it was lightning I worried about. Proper guying is so important and no matter how much we spend and how heavy duty our equipment is, Mother Nature always has the upper hand. I pace the floors when we have a 60 to 70 mph wind and that's only with a 40 foot tower. There have been many times I'm thankful I have a small station.KL8DXhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07200585132950073517noreply@blogger.com
