Sorry to report that I had to shut down wa2xtf/6 tonight (Monday) at
around
5 PM when I discovered it was drawing only five amps and (significantly)

making a slight arcing sound.  Usually, the transmitter draws about 18
amps
even with slight mistuning.  I suspect wind damage to the antenna since
the same winds passed here that were experienced at Nags Head
