  For you unbelievers. Here is proof. Yes, a  real /BM station! Trouble =
is: It doesn't work. The 40m Hustler seems to need more counterpoise. =
Perhaps a bigger bike would work? Maybe you could drag a radial behind =
you?  Also, I never did figure out a good way to mount the key. Any =
suggestions? We used to send code on a little button mounted on the =
handlebars made for sounding the horn.  The antenna mount is your basic =
mirror mount found at any Radio Shack/CB store. The gel-cell will run =
that 1340 for eons.=20
