Hi Jamey,
Thanks for putting the Fox out! Can you give us a rough idea of where it is? Nashua maybe?
I’ve put together a short introduction and checklist for our posting how-to session this evening. Here it is –
You might want to print out a copy and have it by your computer during our Zoom session this evening.
Best and 73,
Hi Scott,
It sounds like you were pretty lucky that this did not get inside. It’s really tough to build a ground system that can stand a near-direct hit like this. The best thing to do is to disconnect your coax and lay it back away from the house when you are not using your antenna. I’m guessing that you might have done this but we don’t expect to have a lightning storm as we had on Sunday in March!
I’d suggest you open the cover of your radio and see how much obvious damage there is inside. If there is not visible or only minor visible damage, it might we worth trying to get it repaired. You might also be able to get your homeowner’s insurance to cover the damage as well.
Sorry to hear about your bad luck.

Hi Aron,
If you have a terminal that is close, a little work with a drill can get you there. Let me know if you can’t find terminals that will fit. I probably have some more that will work here.
