You guys had better hurry up and get ready for weak signals as I'm almost 
ready to put the 7L 6-meter beam back in operation at 115 feet.  You should 
thank me for all the band openings this summer cuz when that antenna goes 
back up the band will be going dead.<sigh>  To insure propagation really 
goes down hill I'm installing LMR 600 all the way.  However I do need to 
climb that tower more.  I hadn't climbed in a month and after an hour up 
there the other eveing  it's taken two days for my calves and quads to 
recover. <:-))

However if any one knows where I can get a good 6-meter legal limit amp, let 
me know and not a pair of 3-500s as they take too much drive. For that I 
could convert my old 2K4, but I'd rather do it was something a bit more 
compact.  I tried for a 6n2 Thunderbolt on e-bay but some one wanted it 
worse than I did. Maybe I should have kicked the final bid up a bit. <sigh>
