[MRCA] antennas and capacitors

[crp.wd8axb at comcast.net]

MFJ makes the parallel capacitor idea easy with 2 switchboxes. I have used the lesser $value model successfully with "hamsticks" while mobile. Really made a difference on the 75 and 40 meter whips.

K4CHE antenna hint for the day: Put several fixed caps(25, 50, 100 pf or 
a variable) in your antenna bag and use them either in series or in 
parallel for that random wire antenna.
