Oh, I forgot to mention...WA3FET has really done a job on his 10 acre site
in the last few months -- graveled the area around the hamshack -- last year
it was raining so much that the place was totally mud and I got the car
stuck and had to be towed out (used romex as the tow rope) -- well, that's a
thing of the past -- limestone gravel is really nice. He and W3MJ have gone
down a couple times to try to improve various things, lightning protection,
etc. and Mike (W3MJ) did a lot of work toward that end this time. And, as
always, thanks to WP3R for use of his call, MP, and on-going local
support -- also, NP4A for an MP and amplifier help. It's a real team effort
to get one op on the air reliably. 73 - Rich, KE3Q
