<DIV>All,</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>After an absence of about 8 weeks, - not having workshop facilities is a</DIV>
<DIV>PITA - vk2rmc-1 is back in service.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>The final in the FM828 had died, so the radio was replaced. Upon return</DIV>
<DIV>to the site the VSWR was checked, with as much power being reflected as</DIV>
<DIV>was being sent foward. It's amazing what a coax cable full of water will</DIV>
<DIV>do!!! No wonder the PA gave up!.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>A temporary replacement antenna and coax has been installed to enable a</DIV>
<DIV>return to service.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>That hole in aprs coverage in Kempsey has been plugged.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
