Thanks for the offer. I'll take a new K3S and KPA1500 when this whole

all kidding aside, we're ready as can be. don't really expect much
flooding based on storm's speed and we're about 3 miles from the ocean.
unfortunately, I expect my 100' of 45 and yagis will disappear in the wind.

Other islands fared even worse, including some places revered by DXpedition teams, like Turks and Caicos. I’m sure not an antenna was left standing, and even if there was, that X-class solar flare didn’t help. Not a good day for radio as backup communications.
