This is why some people appear bright until you hear them speak.

Technically the circumference does. If I did the math right in my head, that 
means the diameter changes faster than the coefficient. If I'm wrong, it isn't 
the first time. Nor the last. If I'm right, it isn't a very big deal with 
antenna sized tubing anyway.

Thank you grant. I was not sure how to interpret that linear expansion
as my situation is using round tubing. Not sure if the diameter would
change at the same rate as in a linear strip of metal. 73
Diameter grows at the same rate.
