Topband: FW: CQWW a bust this year

[Jeff]

I agree with you Lee.

My new rotatable flag to me is super compared to my 4' loop
on my 1/4 acre city lot.

I guess it's all relative to one's situation.

Maybe the word Nick is looking for is Magic.

There is no Magic antenna that is effective when the band is not open.
