[HCARC] Antennas

[Gary and Arlene Johnson]

Bob,

What I would like to have you bring to a meeting is a copy of your plans for 
the 20 foot 80-10 vertical that was pictured and talked about in the Boy 
Scout JOTA article you put up here on the reflector.  I am trying to get our 
church to sponsor a station for our Boy Scout troop and an antenna of that 
type might be a great addition to their Jota station.
