Thank you all very much for trying to help me this weekend. I think it is
now time fore to talk to Mike at M2. I'm sure he'll know exactly what's
going on here. I'll report back what I find tomorrow. In the meantime, you
all have taught me quite a bit more about antennas in general and this one
in particular. And that's what this group is really for.
