How is everyone doing after last night's storm?  Down here in NYC,
Staten Island received about half of what the Bronx received.  With
the high winds, drifts are higher in places than what actually fell.
As things settle down, you may notice some problems with your coax
and/or antenna.  Take the time to check things out both physically
and electrically.  Make use of your antenna analyzers and SWR bridges
while moving the coax around, especially around the connectors.  The
key to a fully functional system encompasses all of the aspects, from
the signal to the proper configuration of the software and networking.
Let's all help each other to overcome obstacles, lack of information
and any negativity from others. :)
