Hi Chris,

Well you have a warning system there.

KB5NJD remarked that the only way to know for sure how a failure
occurred might be to have a camera watching the coil at all times.
Well, maybe we could do like NASA. You know they have engineering
cameras all around the launch pad and tower to capture video which
can later be reviewed and analyzed. I think with half a dozen
cameras we can capture engineering video of our loading coils. It
may not prevent disaster but maybe we could see exactly how and why
disaster struck. Could be fun to have a wall full of 'engineering
video monitors'. ;-)

73,
Paul
