Re: T-Storms - Valentine Sprint
We're expecting an ice storm here in southern Maryland. Antenna looks good so far. Brushed the snow off the solar panel but it has a light coat of ice on it. Hope I don't have to go to mains power.

If anyone is keeping time in local time rather than Zulu/GMT/UTC , they are doing themselves a disservice !
If you work DX or anything else, logs should be kept in Zulu/GMT/UTC which should all be
