Gulf Coast Members Back in Action

Both Chip Keister, N5RTF, and John McCann, WB5BHB checked into MARCO Grand Rounds on October 2. It was wonderful to hear them both.

Chip had to leave to supervise tree removal at his house. He reports that there were several trees down and a 500-lb limb hanging precariously over the driveway. The roof is missing some tiles also, but overall the house is not in bad shape.

The neighborhood has gas and electricity, while telephone and Internet service has not yet been restored. The water in the taps is not considered to be potable. (Did you ever witness anyone in New Orleans drink water? I can't recall doing so...)
