[PaQSO] Antenna etiquette

[Bob Crossland]

It probably does depend on which ranger you get, and what mood he/she is
in that particular day.

I've always worked this contest portable, and every time I go to a new
location I make sure the owner knows exactly what my intentions are,
including antennas.    

Some people just like to make it tough on others.
