LF,

I've wound in the balloons as they had deflated and the aerial wire was sparking to a neighbouring tree top.

There are a few minor problems to resolve:
The aerial wire passes through metal eyelets on the fibre glass fishing pole and these spark quite severely.
I could hear the arking and smell ozone.
A jury-rigged rubber grommet smoldered and smoked.

I'm back on the 40m inverted 'L' and will continue running QRSS 600 for a few hours.

Happy New Year in advance.
