Maybe 30 years ago was assigned for an Army Reserve summer camp to Camp 
Ripley, MN.  Had been active on 160 and phoned one of the big guns living 
nearby and asked if I could drop by to check out the antenna system.  Was 
invited.  Dropped by with the Chaplain and was entertained by this Hams wife 
on the front porch for a while and then given a tour of the shack.  The 
non-Ham with me later asked why things were being moved around inside while 
we waited.  Power limit on 160 then was 50/100 watts. 

Rumor is that that guy moved somewhere south of FL and isn't hamming 
anymore.  Maybe those antenna tuners exist(ed) outside of I and G.
