Next Monday (11/29/04) is the deadline for submissions to be included in the
December Key-Klix issue. I would appreciate it if everyone submitting
material could send it to me on or before this deadline. With the Holidays
quickly approaching none of us want to be faced with last minute must-do's;
and I hope to be training my replacement as a Key-Klix editor as we put this
issue together.
Let's make this issue special! It would be great if we could include a few
Christmas related articles from past holidays seasons or maybe something
upcoming for this year.
Thanks and Happy Holydays to everyone!

I had an unusual structural failure recently when all the bolts securing
the dome to the body of my antenna rotor apparently worked their way
loose, allowing the rotor to separate, unceremoniously causing my A3WS
and A4S beams to crash to the ground. Luckily there was no damage to
the roof off which they must have bounced on their way earthward. Most
of the damage to the beams involves the end sections of the elements,
which got pretty bent.
Here's my question: is there a way to straighten out the aluminum
tubing without breaking it? Does a tool exist to help do it?
Advice appreciated.

Subject: [ARRLSB] ALERT ISSUED FOR STOLEN CROP-DUSTER

ALERT ISSUED FOR STOLEN CROP-DUSTER
The Transportation Security Administration has issued an advisory
that a
Piper PA 25 Pawnee crop-dusting aircraft was stolen from Ejido Queretaro,
near Mexicali, Mexico, on Nov. 1.
"Although there is currently no indication that this has any
connection
to terrorist activity," the TSA said, "the theft is cause for concern.
Past
information indicates that members of al-Qaida may have planned -- or may
still be planning -- to disperse biological or chemical agents from
cropdusting aircraft."
The stolen aircraft is registered in Mexico and bears the tail number
XBCYP. If you see the aircraft, the TSA says you should immediately
contact
the TSA General Aviation Hotline at (866) 427-3287, or contact your
nearest
office of the FBI.
