Message-ID: <63831c78-9500-c1b1-d6cd-b23e9a7ca71e@flscg.org> Ryan and I made it over to the St Pete site today and fixed the post Irma woes. We thought the system had rotated, or at least bent over a bit. What we found was the pipe used to support the sectors had folded over completely. We replaced it with a 10' schedule 40 pipe, which should be much stronger than the fence pipe. Here's some pictures of the failure and repair: https://imgur.com/gallery/SgffK 73's -- Bryan Fields, W9CR Florida Simulcast Group, Inc.
