Topband: how to check a BOG

[Art Snapper]

I took a hint from Luis HC1PF.  A small 1.8+/- clock oscillator and a wire
attached to a pole is what he used.
I found said oscillator on eBay.

It worked, but I am not sure the near field results should be taken for
granted.

p.s. Still trying to figure out the computer problem that plagued me during
the SP, and is gone now!
