Don, the guys in Live Oak are stll drying out the room the repeater is
located in.  With a flat top roof, it seems the water level built up so fast
that it came down some of the electrical conduits that extended about a foot
above the roof level and flooded the equipment room on the 5th floor of the
building.  I think they need to work on the roof drainage before the next
Hello Dolly.

The repeater may be back on the air Monday -

Correction, I actually vacuumed it out with a industrial strength vacuum
pump.  I bought it several years ago for $180.00, new they sold for
$1200.00.  I lucked out.
 
If you just let it drain it will not get all the moisture out, you have to
use some kind of pump to put a vacuum on the line before you pump it full of
nitrogen or dry air for a dehydrator pump.  I use a dehydrator pump on my
lines.

pump it down, fill it with dry nitrogen, re-pump, repeat several times

just like an AC system
