[Elecraft] Elecraft CW Net Announcement

[Stephen W. Kercel]

Geoff:

Yes, it does seem that cattle raising entails some bizarre problems. 
Back when I worked for the Tennessee Valley Authority we held 
hearings on a proposed 500 KV transmission line, one end of which was 
to terminate at the Phipps Bend Nuclear Plant. One person objecting 
to the proposed installation was a dairy farmer through whose farm 
the line would pass. He was not worried about the proximity to stray 
voltage or the very large electric field associated with such 
lines.  Despite the fact that he was over a hundred miles from the 
plant, his concern was that his cows would be exposed to all that 
radioactive electricity.

73,
