[aprssig] Off APRS for a while

[Charles Doughtie]

DO isayagain DO consider yourself fortunate. I was
standing in my carport about 20 feet from an antenna
when I experienced the nasty stuff about 20 years
ago. It took out a lot of electronics and blew the
coil apart on the antenna, but no people. There are
two types of hamshacks - those that have been struck
and those that will be. I have moved since then, so
I'm in a new shack that will be, I suppose. The
insurance claim was a hassle, but they were fair.
