[Lowfer] TAG and Wolf

[Stan W1LE]

Hello JA,

Good Morning, and Happy New Year.

Kinda begs the experimenter to add a additional signal, 2 Hz offset 
(+/-), with a different modulation scheme.
Same RF output (amplitude) power levels for either signal.
Maybe 2Hz offset is too close, make it at least outside the RX bandwidth 
of the other signal.

I am still pondering my RF activity here in Sandwich.
Have cleared off a bunch of trees, had the stumps pulled, and have a 
very rough, rough grade.
Need to get the final finish grade so I can start laying out the antenna 
farm.

Priced up a pair of 50' utility poles to support some wires  ( and big 
rotate-able loops)
but the 8K$ price scared me away.
10 years ago I was quoted 400$ per pole, planted, and guyed one way....

Got to get ready to work Desecheo...
