A few years ago when we moved to the Maritimes within our first weeks we were greeted by Hurricane Dorian. It was, to say the least, an adventure and left us asking "why the heck did we move down here". Since moving down here we have learned about and experienced Nor'easters and hurricanes.

 Today I am taking down the Hustler 4BTV and my Endfed wire antenna. Anything that can be blown around has been stored away and our generator is filled, tested and ready to go. The generator with a remote start and is connected to a transfer circuit breaker panel. It feeds our fridge, heat pump, living room, bedroom and radio room. 

This hurricane adventure is supposed to start this evening (Friday) and last until Sunday morning.

Have you ever been invited to visit with a group of radio amateurs and just felt like you’d dropped in at home? I’ve had the pleasure of that a few times. One of those groups is the Denby Dale Amateur Radio Society in England. Their Chairperson is Nick Bradley G4IWO. He’s invited me to natter about with the DDARS several times over the past couple of years. Last week, I spoke to them about my RadCom articles with Dr. Scott McIntosh that appeared this summer.

The talk is now on their Youtube Channel below. I hope they get back soon to meeting in Pie Hall, where they are served pie and peas. After all, Denby Dale is the home of the world’s largest meat pie! If the pie is as welcoming as the group that typically meets there, it’s very good indeed!
