[CTSARA] [GNARC] NVIS Antenna

[Douglas Sharafanowich]

Thanks for the referral. 

I was updating the website recently and noticed that 2 NVIS threads have a had over 2,000 and over 3,000 hits!

After my corresponding with the Ohio Section Manager in advance of last year's annual "NVIS Day" event (#2 this year) event, I wonder how many folks in Ohio have been there.
 ;-)
