Great information LW...I'll pick up a can next trip to Lowes/Home Depot.

The power line noise at the beach subsided last night and I heard you and the guys about 2300 hours or so.

You had some funny stuff, and too bad Archie didn't appreciate the subtle humor.

I heard you repaired your FT900 ....good work.

Stay well...best regards,

George W7LFD
