never received that email.

It's actually worse than that. The original spam on the list was from the 
guy complaining. There never was a post from Mike on the list.
This pretty much defines "trolling."

Now can we get back to towers? I keep thinking about the sections of RG25 
sitting in my garage, then looking at the power lines across the back yard 
that keep me from putting it up...
