Hey on S-27 theme.  No way to prove the BC-794 Super Pro variant went to 
40 mhz to do low-band S-27 stuff.

Don't care, I'm sure of it.

* Clete I never thanked you for teaching me range had one non-stop
  TX who's output switched back & forth between phased antenna pairs
  to get the As, then to get the Ns.

  Remember dad taking me to Indian Hill section of Cincy to see the
  "Lunken (arpt) Radio Beam"

  And it was near that "Lunken (arpt) Radio Beam" a "fat little 2-motah
  coastal patrol" plane made it's last stop, just missing a Catholic
  school (damn, some are saying).  

  "fat little 2-motah coastal patrol" plane probably Lockheed 
   Ventura/Hudson/Loadstar(tle)
