I have not been getting up in the mornings much but was pleasantly surprised
to hear KL7J this morning with a decent signal on my "summertime" antennas.
Been test driving an Icom 746pro of
K5ZG's and comparing it to my Corsair II.  Afraid I have to give the edge to
the pro even though I'm not used to the Pro yet and have been using the
Ten-Tec Corsair II for over 10 years. BTW, the receive antennas and linear
work fine with the 746pro, and the little band scope is very nice...de gary,
