So I moved the Procaster from the location I had it and moved it up higher on the wall near the ceiling. Was so hard to remove with the mounting tape so I used less of it in the new location but didn't clean the tile surface on the wall with alcohol first. Was good for 3 days but last night sometime it fell and came crashing down from 6 to 7 ft up off the floor so it fell and hit the phone first on a cabinet half way down, broke the phone(had to get another today) and then fell the rest of the way to the hard floor! Believe it or not I slept through the crash in the same room! Didn't even know it happened till I woke up at around 11 this morning and saw the Procaster not up on the wall but the radio was still playing my station. Can't believe it didn't wake me up. So there it was on the floor and the studio was hanging down off the shelf by the audio cable which stayed in and the power cable which didn't pull out also surprisingly. I had a long enough 4 conductor cable so it was able to reach to the floor from the studio where the Procaster fell. Didn't do any damage to the terminal blocks on the studio and Procaster. The antenna wire pulled off the bolt where it was attached with an alligator clip so it was working with no antenna and still enough power to not affect the reception!
Thinking the worst I examined it very closely and all seemed good. The meter, coil and circuit board components seemed unaffected by the impact of the fall. The only thing that happened was on the cabinet where the two mounting flanges on top and bottom are for mounting to a pole or whatever, one of them got bent a bit so I took pliers and a microfiber cloth to not scrape the cabinet and bent it back to shape. Probably fell on the corner to bend it a bit.
Seems to have survived the impact with no ill effect except for the flange on the outside of cabinet.
You see what can happen! This is why I like to have backups of things. I may consider an extra Procaster board for backup.
Something similar had occurred with my Rangemaster, I forget exactly how it had happened, it was at least 15 years ago and I must have been mounting the transmitter or something because the antenna was not attached when it fell and I think the cover of the case was not screwed on either - all I recall is that the transmitter had gone flying off the roof (of the pavilion of the pier) and hit hard below. It has broke off all four of the little white plastic things inside that hold the board in place leaving the board hanging only by the wire that went to the antenna mount. Other than that no damage was done, not to the board or the case, everything worked fine. Upon request Keith had sent me the replacement mounting tabs for free.
The Procaster has the circuit board held in with 4 screws to metal mounts inside the case so it couldn't come loose.
