Yup. "The Snow Blower Flu" a very close relative to and supposedly 
genetically linked to the "Snow Shovel Flu". Every bone, joint, and 
muscle in my body aches. Did I mention I have two long driveways and a 
1/4 ton snow blower with a rigid axel? Wish I'd spent the extra for one 
with a differential.  I sure am glad we don't live down South in the 
"snow belt"<:-)) 

It's beautiful sunshine, near freezing (on the low side) which is above 
normal for us.  I'm working on antennas again. I was able to clean the 
top off the 4-Runner and wipe a spot dry that's large enough for the 
Diamond mag mount. I had the car worked on last month and this is the 
first time I've had a clean area large enough to mount the mobile 
antenna.  I found the AV640 is now working fine so maybe I'll just have 
to pack it with ice next summer.
