I'll give it a try someday!
Perhaps I'll learn something new!
It doesn't have either the mass or power to hold temp when touched
to the side of a PL259...but perhaps it has some other voodoo in its' 
innards
to get the job done.  And I don't even have to buy anything new!!  Always 
nice!
Tnx!!
....Dave
