Thursday, we heard 6" (8"?) transmission line 'burned up' at around 900' AGL.  Tower crew on site working on problem.  That's all I know at the moment.

I happened to be watching about the time it went down, and first noted a lot of pixelation  before it went dark totally...which made me think that there was a big power drop before total failure.  Lots of things can cause that.Their website is no help at all.Daun-- Daun E. Yeagley II, N8ASB
