[ADXA] 100 on 80

[Dennis Schaefer]

Thanks, Pat, and all the others for the kind words.  I am fortunate to have
some room to work here, and there is much more I could do.   I worked D68Z
on 40 and 80 last night with good reports, and was glad to have the Pennant
receive antenna.  It was the difference between copy and no copy on 80.

See everyone tomorrow!

73,
Dennis
