Heck yes!   Couldn't resist! <G>  The shorter lamps work better as they
seem to have more mercury in them than the larger type.  As soon as I
find a good 40 watt'er I'll shoot a pic.  I can light the little 8 watt
tubes about 6 feet from the antenna when I am standing on the ground
next to the tower.
