[Boatanchors] Transmitting Type Variable Caps Needed

[Al Parker]

Hi Bill,
	I don't have a junk box full, but I think I do have one, maybe 2 
(somewhere).  Might be in the edebris I bring to hamfests, a bit hard to 
dig thru those boxes, but I'll look today.
	I know you don't do the fone CX, but I tried again.  For the first 
time, I ckd out 7 rigs on Fri.-Sat.  Come Sun. 3 decided to make 
trouble, finally did get 2 to cooperate some, but still only qualified 
4.  Only abt 18 QSO's I think.  Have only been using 3 pairs for the 
last yr or 2, maybe that's what I should stick with.  Good to work you a 
cupla wks ago in the CW CX.
73,

Al, W8UT
