Every year, about this time,  we seem to fixate on a topic and beat
it within inches
of its life.

We're pretty much done with contest season.   It isn't warm enough
for a lot of antenna work,
yet.    And Visalia and Dayton lie ahead.

And so, we have.... true north,   plastic owls,  and the topic ces
annee ...   Cage Dipole.

Let us put it to rest, please.

And while we're at it, my comments about polarization of arriving
signals came up as a post
a full 10 days after they were sent.... and ammended.    Talk about
long-delay-echoes!

Happy Spring!   Let's go plant towers.    Or tulips.
Or something appropriately ceremonial, like a 4-square of tulips.
As for me, I'm working on a 5/8 lambda 20m tiltover vertical, with
toploading
for 160-30.
