Hi Jay and everyone.

I hope everyone had a good Thanksgiving day. Thank you for the
capture Jay. That is one more for the files. 
I want to say thanks again to everyone who has given me tips,
information, encouragement and so forth, AND !! been patient
with me while I have asked the same questions more than once.
After some mental time off; I hope to construct a new Variometer
using the larger wire. Maybe I can squeeze a couple more u-Watts
out into the air.  Still dreaming of a Sideband transmitter for
trying some of the digital modes. That's most likely quite a
way into the future though.
