Topband: DU9/N0NM

[Jon Rudy-MCC Asia Peace Resource]

Necessity is the mother of invention. The gardner and I put together a long bamboo pole knife and cut the offending palm frond away so I am back on 160. Since I am not the spry tower climbing monkey I once was, I don't even attempt to climb these 60 foot coco trees so I thought it would be a long time until I got the antenna fixed but its going now with a 1.5:1 SWR...good enough for my 800 watts. 

Since some of you are losing lots of winks looking for DU on 160 I will post the days I am gone or off the air for any reason. Hope this is appropriate use of the reflector.

A trip has suddenly come up and I will be gone from Monday to Friday next week (6-10 Oct.)

See you this weekend.
