Bill, 

No wonder you sounded so good on 40 and 80.  We are running the same W9INN
antenna.  I have had it up for years.  Too bad nobody picked up the ball
from the W9INN estate.  I have a QSL card from Bill, W9INN (sk) indicating I
was the firs station he had ever worked using one of his antennas.

Tip of the Day:  Add a 18 MHz set of wires to the W9INN and it has a perfect
SWR on 50 MHz if you are into DOS (Digital On Six).  Yes, I know a good beam
is better but this is great when the band is open.

TNX for the BARTG Sprint QSOs.
