[Amps] antennas that are 1:1 vswr all over the band

[Gary Smith]

To go on about this,  a man named Phil invented two items: the Phillips screwdriver (several sizes) along with a drink he also named the Phillips screwdriver.

The first item he came up with can be found in most tool boxes.

The other idea he came up with consists of milk of magnesia and vodka equal parts, one to one.  That's how some spell relief.

73 to all (and a merry one at that)

  He could easily have had an influence on the design.
