I am currently "computer handicapped" because of a nearby lightning strike last evening. I think I have accessed the damage, but there may be more to be revealed once more devices come on-line.
It seems the damage propagated via the wired Ethernet connections - I lost 3 (maybe 4) computers on my home network, a router, 2 network switches and the NAS file server. Fortunately, the file server (which contains all backup data) only lost the Ethernet connect capability - the files are still intact. What I am saying is that I will be "limping along" until the equipment I ordered comes in and can be placed in service. So if you send me email and do not get a prompt response, it may be because my P-P network is in the process of being updated. I expect it will be mid-next-week before I have everything up and running again. NO damage to any of the ham gear, and I attribute that to a good grounding system coupled with having all the radio gear connected to dummy loads during the disturbance. 73, Don W3FPR ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:Elecraft@mailman.qth.net This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html
