[ICOM] G5RV & AT-500

[Alan Leith]

Yeah, I've had a couple of QSOs on 30 and 40 this evening, heard 
VI9NI on 17.  What I'm going to do, until my beam is working again, 
is use the tuner in my IC-761 for 10 and 15 and the AT-500 on the 
other bands.  I'm quite pleased with the 30M operation although I had 
a really hard time getting the tuner to play.  Nice to be back on 30 
-- I like the band a lot.
