AD5TH Tower Project Completed - Pics Online
Just been going through some old posts, and I remember a big thread
aobut this guy putting up an insanely-badly engineered tower project earlier this summer (http://www.deepsouthnet.net/tower.html). Well, looking him up on QRZ.com, that sure looks like he was in the path of Katrina or near enough. I hope his tower withstood Mother Nature's wrath. 73 de Peter, W2IRT (ex-AB2NZ, VE3THX) Please reply to Double-you Two Eye Are Tee at Arrl.net |

Katrina was a Cat 2 hurricane when it hit us here in Newton County
Mississippi with winds measured at 105 mph. The antennas all survived as well as the tower. I was QRT for 3 days however due to no electricity. We also had no phones or water during that time. -- Charlie "Peter Dougherty" wrote in message ...

I really was afraid that tower of yours would come down and do some damage--good to hear all's well.
