Well, the signals I hear out of 9-land from Bob Heil, K9EID and Jimmy,
KJ9T would not indicate to me that it is a black-hole.  The fact that they
can still hear me when I crank the power knob full counter-clockwise also
either debunks the "black hole" thing or is a huge complement to their RX
capabilities.
