Hi Bill,

Everything Matt does is first class. I live about 20 miles from him and he's
LOUD on any band. What a sight when you're looking straight up that tower from
the base... Its pretty difficult to see sky thru all that aluminum.

I BET HE COULD RUN EUROPE KEYING AN H-P SIGNAL GENERATOR CONNECTED TO THAT
STACK!!!!!

73,
John

I have to question the logic of 8 10M yagis stacked vertically.  Unless 
Matt is using hardline between the antennas for phasing lines, I would 
guess that much of the gain he gets with 8 yagis is lost in 8 very long 
feed lines.  Of course Matt never does anything half____.  So he must 
know something (probably a lot) I dont know.

Anyone else have an opinion?

Bill
