I won't be at the Hamvention, but if I hear you I'll most certainly give 
you a call.

Being old and decrepit, I don't change much aerialwise from one decade 
to another if I can help it.   What's in the sky or under the ground 
stays there.   We don't have animals here that eat antennas.

Enjoy the summer - I will!  d.v. I'll be putting up a new pole (no masts 
allowed, the house is 15th Century with listing restrictions) with more 
chance of working something outside Europe on top band (like in the good 
old days!)
