Hi TT crowd!

It's the final hours before CQWWCW, and there's good news and bad news! Which do you want to hear first?

The good news: Our weather here in New England will be in the 60s all week! Plenty of opportunity to do risky, last-minute antenna projects.
The bad news: All our business customers will suffer this week.

Your help is needed, please.

A very nice TH3 has been loaned to us for the weekend, to be used on the multiplier station. We have no manual, however. It would be very helpful if someone can email the antenna dimensions or, preferably, a scanned copy of the manual. All the elements were assembled when we picked up the antenna, except the element tips. The proper lengths for these tips is the most important requirement - I think the rest of the element assembly is probably just fine.

Hopefully, this will save us a few minutes of experimenting - and we need every minute we can find!

Thanks and 73. CU CQWWCW!
