Stopped by the PO box this morning after being out of town on a business
trip to Seattle and found the latest CQ along with the AES Summer
Catalog.

Re the AES catalog.  In the section that has all of Cushcraft's antennas,
I noticed a new HF multiband beam.  It's called the MA5B, and has gain on
10, 12, 15, 17, & 20 meters.  It looks like an A3/40-2CD hybrid with lots
(20!) of those top-hat aluminum rods.

Oh well..., on to CQ....
