Anyway, I'm back on-line finally. My amateur radio station took a direct lightning hit Monday night. All cables from the antennas were disconnected from the equipment but the lightning said, "F**k that...I'm going through your expensive equipment." It took out my $1500 HF transceiver, my $1800 HF antenna, the UPS for my PC, the network interface on the PC, the router, the cable modem and the cable distribution block out in the backyard.
