Hi, Bill,

I don't really know what to expect.  Mike said his loop current was 700mA 
right now, but I don't know if I'll ever reach that.  Seems like I read on 
Lyle's site that the winter current of LEK was about 200mA.

I'll keep working at it, though, and I guess I'll now be able to see 
better what effect changes have.

Hmmm, ok.  It was about 985mW before I started tuning last night.  I'll 
keep an eye on it as I do this.

What antenna current are you other vertical operators seeing right now?
