[SCCC] AA6PW SSB SS

[Timothy Coker]

Mine wanted me to put up the taller tower when I told her RFI dropped off
with vertical and/or lateral distance... something about the click of a
Hygain Tailtwister at 0 dark 30... also the randomly operating ceiling fan
when I transmitted on certain bands. I thought it was cool as I no longer
needed to install that remote control she had been asking for... but she
had a different outlook.

73,

Tim / N6WIN.
