[Antennaware] Antennaware Digest

[Bill Aycock]

Gary-

With respect to your last Paragraph-- your opinion counts a LOT to any

I think that a lot of the modeling posts on TowerTalk should, perhaps, start 
there but them move here. This would make the choice to follow or skip a 
given thread easier.
