*Thanks for sharing, Terry. A rat got into a GE MASTR repeater chasis a few years ago and built a similar but smaller nest. The rat urine ran down and shorted out the push to talk line, and the repeater stayed keyed for several weeks until someone could get to the site to find out what happened. Lesson learned. They don't like steel wool, so that can also be an effective blocking aid as well.*

I thought you  all might get a kick out of a real rats nest in my generator. See pic below.
He chewed a few wires too, but I'm remediating that...

Better test your power options. :-)
