      I was actually at the M2 factory on Wednesday and Mike took me up on 
the roof and showed me the new KT36XA. It's basically the same antenna as the 
KT34XA but has more boom plus it has mechanical and electrical upgrades. 
Instead of all the bent aluminum jumpers, it will have nicely machined parts. 
It doesn't look like the number of parts is going to change so it'll still 
take some time to assemble but Mike says he's gotten .5 to 1 dB more gain 
from the new design. They have over 50 orders already so it'll be awhile 
before they get caught up with production. A preliminary flyer will be 
available at Dayton.
