Huh? Are you saying your variometer-soon-to-be-loading coil will not
vary--at all? I'm not so sure this trick can be applied LowFER-wise.
Seems "loopie." Who put you up to this, Bill, Mike? Figures.
While you are downsizing yer loading coil and jacking up the main
masting, don't neglect ye tophat for total height. Of course getting a
big one up there is a challenge, as is the guying. Take advantage of the
favorable wx now for all pole work.
