Soapbox:

 Where did 10M and 15M go? About 2030Z I actually went out and
 checked my coax and antennas, etc. I couldn't believe 10/15/20
 signals were so weak... and very far between on 10 and 15! I guess
 I should have hung around 15M a little more to grab some of the
 multipliers. Was pleased with the 80M shunt I threw together Friday
 night. The "sloper" I made (Sat AM) for 160M was from the tip of the
 tower to my truck out on the curb in the front of the house. Hooked 
 it up after dark so neighbors couldn't see it! At least it 
 loaded-up and allowed me to work a couple of guys.

 Time to get a second radio set up.....

 Mango? Duck? ICU? No Elvis?
