Topband: 8Q7WM Z-22 in VE6

[Renee K6FSB]

Jim-
clarification-
moved to little town of Rail road Flat...95248...actually it was Moms 
place for 30 yrs and I was able to operate up here a lot...nice and 
quiet S1 noise...I still have the place in the BayArea...way too noisy 
as you know and it keeps getting worse....couple of years ago place here 
95248 smelled like skunk heaven that appearse been corrected ( oh I am 
allergic to the stuff too)..I have neighbors that are growing indoors 
during the winter...outdoors in summer and more than just a few 
plants.....just cannot get rid of the RFI, seems to follow me like a bad 
penny....
sorry all, off topic...I will say no more
Renée, K6FSB
