Steve's a bit bummed out, but has made it clear that it was only property damage, and that recovery will proceed as quickly as possible.

Sorry, I'm just used to hearing one of his repeaters up the road (65) from us ID ing all the time. He sure has spent a lot of time and money for the ham radio community.
