I could do that any time, even with antennas on the same tower depending on
the band/antenna combination used.

Javier and all.... I am sick of citing things I have actually personally
done and have people on the reflectors tell me that somehow they have ESP
and just are sure I could not have done that. In my story herein, I
ACTUALLY DID use an antenna within the legal rule site for my experiment.
I took the "lie" out of my nickname, Charlie, and am now Charly. 73
