Re: [TowerTalk] Force12

["Kenneth D. Grimm, K4XL" <grimm@sbc.edu>]

This is where BAMA can be useful.  While I intended BAMA to be for tube 
type amateur gear, I've provided storage space for quite a lot of test 
gear and even some solid state stuff.  Actually, there are a few 
"obsolete" antenna manuals in the collection and I have no problem with 
hosting more of them.   Naturally, I won't be putting the manual for my 
new Force 12 Delta 240/230 since Force 12 don't want their manuals to be 
freely available.  Wilson and Telrex manuals, etc. would be most welcome 
as well as any others for antennas no longer in production and for which 
the manufacturer doesn't object to free distribution of their info.
