Hey John; nice to get a response from you. TNX for looking, although
in vain. " XR " vs. Static at over 800 miles ??? " XR " goes down
by a big KO !! hi - hi . I am trying to study up and find feasible
ways to improve my radiation efficiency, within my " Radio Budget "
Lots of stuff out there to read. Seems that loading coil losses
appear to be a substantial issue.

Looking forward to your signals this winter, maybe on 2200 meters ??

73 for now :
