	Someone has already told you where California is.  As for antennas,
anything we can get up.  I have a HyGain 50' tower which is lousy for
VLF (180 kHz type) because it tapers toward the top giving a lousy
current distribution.  50' TV masts have been common, and one station
(no longer around) had a 160 foot tower!

	Activity here is almost nil these days but in the days of Mike Mideke
we had over a dozen beacons here as well as an SSB net in the LA area.

Trying to get some interest going again in communicating (even if kinda
slowly).
