LARRY HOPE YOU GET TOTALLY WELL SOON. I have my argo 5 and jupiter on the same computer using n4py sofeware. I have worked a lot of dx on the argo on cw. It's so quiet. I have a th7dxx and 3 element 40 meter beam hygain and wire dipoles. My problem now is keeping them working. I am going to have to downsize on ants to something lite. I also had heart surgery. i had a heart transplant 8.5 years ago. doign ok i guess. the medicine is a killer. going to have a knee replacement on the 14 march. But my radio room (old bedroom) is next to our current bedroom. I hve been working lately to get it all going ok, but i hve a gremlin somewhere. Most of coax to 2 towers is under ground. I hve intermitant swr problem. driving me crazy. Then my remote ant switch stopped switching. Anyway murphy is alive and well. gud luck with heart and do what they tell you. hi hi 73 cul roger  w4iv

I have bought right off the line an lightweight 20 meter mono band Hex Beam.  I shopped on line and got a suitable TV rotor and software .. Thanks again to all of you for the advice.   But, about a month before last Thanksgiving I under went some very serious open heart surgery. You know, when they open up the chest and all that. Well I am OK now, and am about ready to get  my beam in the air.  It won't be too long.    I have some spare PC's and plenty of room on the hub part of my router. I  wonder if it would be helpful if I dedicated one completely to my ARGO. It is a very tight squeeze and the other PC in my shack/office has 120 GIG hard disk with a lot of empty space. So, if it is not of benefit, I could use the space. It is just that I have not been on the air very much with "mode
