Thanks Mr Hoover. Hope to have the SVM with added band switch ready by 
morning so I can calibrate the level. I'm real interested in seeing if the 
loop Rr equation holds which gives me a 2X reduction in signal at the same 
input power at 185.3. Theoretically I will run ~2X the current to account 
for this but it's interesting that I am allowed 45% more signal per Pt 15 
because the frequency is 45% lower. You may end up with more signal than you 
had at 185.3. Certainly Jay and Paul will end up with more signal because of 
the reduced attenuation factor at that distance.
