[TenTec] RE: Ten Tec / Antenna puzzle

[David Wright]

Ron/Tom & crew, 

Thanks guys!  If it was a snake it would have bit me!  Hi !  Talk about
not seeing the painfully obvious....    Now all I have to do is put one
between rig & amp.  I'll just keep my fingers crossed RF is not getting
straight into the front end... I'd be willing to bet the near field here
is quite high although I've never actually measured it.....
