Hi Jack,

I just made some comments in a thread regarding multi band operation
with the FCP.  Thanks for the updated information. I am going to make a
wild guess that I can add an FCP for 40 and perhaps 30 meters as well. I
prefer to operate even when power is not available so I won't be using
relays in my system. I don't mind going out the back door for a minute
even in winter to change bands. I've done that before and I'm still
young enough to manhandle my walker out there <just kidding>. We are
into winter weather and snow drifts now so it's an ideal time to put up
one of these and invoke Murphy's Antenna Corollary for the inverse
relationship between install weather and performance.

73,
