No problems, mate. Pardon my poor English, but us VR2s are like that... ;^)
Comment based on fact that C31XR/single_feed isn't as simple as different
tip lengths & different Q coils as C31XR/separate_feeds. Somewhat different
beast & since nobody pointed that out, I could not let it go as Force-12 was
not being treated fairly in some folks' posts, IMHO.
Now, where did this start? N7WA was having some problems with reasonant
frequency on 21 Mc. Hmmmm.... Dink?
