Peter and myself recovered #580 this morning ,  looks like it was  
suspended in the HV transmission line till the string vaporised
The sonde was directly below the line with only 6 feet of string attached.

I recovered #827 after a slow crawl down the goat track near the end of  
Keyneton Estate Rd.
