Tied Down
Well that was entertaining.
Freak little thunderstorm rolled through, and one of the loudest and most interesting electrical storms I've seen since our condo was hit by lightning about ten years ago.
Lightning hit the cable drop, popped four breakers and a GFCI, and also fried the cablemodem.
Always interesting to live in the 2nd highest lightning strike State in the U.S.!
Radios and the link from the Internet to the Ham repeater that runs from here, and the KAPA TWR computer and radio for LiveATC are fine. But without Internet, offline for the moment.
And I'll be using the company Sprint modem for my 1AM maintenance window.
Comcast says they'll be out in the morning to test the drop and replace the modem.
Wheee.
