RedactedNarrative: V-1 was traveling northbound in the Indian River when its mast came in contact with a power line that crosses over the river.  The power surge caused damage to the radar antenna and components on V-1. Based on my findings to date,  there is no conclusive evidence to indicate that V-1  came in direct contact with the power line.  
  
  Both V-1 Operator and occupant stated that V-1 was just west of the ICW channel when the explosion occurred.  Based on my measurements, that area would have provided adequate clearance for V-1 to cross under.  Operator also stated that he didn't experience any restricted movement when he crossed under the power lines.  Occupant stated that it appeared to her that V-1 had already cleared the power lines as she observed V-1 still heading northbound on the south side of the power lines.  It appears that when V-1 crossed under the high voltage power lines an electrical arc was created from the power line to the tip of the mast.  The power surged down the mast to the radar antenna and then continued down to the electrical components in the cabin.  no injuries noted
