One of G9BF's classic operating techniques is as apposite today as it 
ever was back in the days of the ( original and lamented) SWM, and 
G3COI, namely use max. urge in PA, and max. length of wire in antenna ( 
well the latter not on 10Ghz mind) ;-)


Oh well I suppose we'd better get back to contesting, but it's not 
nearly as much fun :-(
