I've heard hams talking about the grey line before.
I thought it was the mark you get on your neck when you haven't washed 
properly.
You mean it has something to do with radio????

The other thought was it was a queue of pensioners waiting in the post 
office for their pensions?

I've only been licenced 16 years, so still a newbie. I'll dig out a book 
or two and get someone to read me the bits about the grey line.
I'd read it myself but there are tooo many long words in ham radio 
books. Propagation.... That's a long word, and spelt wrong no doubt... I 
thought it was something to do with farming.... Will I ever get he hang 
of this hobby?
