Years ago Aztec RF here in San Diego sold a DX wax for yagi and
vertical antennas that let the RF wavefronts actually leap off the
antenna with the greatest of ease... One of their ingredients was,
Kielbasa drippings.... Incredible stuff! ... But I up'ed it one by
installing my vertical to a washing machine motor, spinning my
vertical and flinging the electrons off at hyper speed allowing me to
work DX like Arkansas and Mississippi. Worked great except for
the time the motor started up in reverse and plugged up my 
Atlas 210 with Kielbasa/RF wax. Herb Johnson at Atlas refused to
fix it, but said his eggs tasted great fried in the RF wax.....

I tried an experiment the other day and want to inform the group on my 
findings.

I made some Kielbasa the other day and hated to just throw out the leftover 
drippings, so I decided to try an experiment.  I "oiled down" my 80 meter 
dipole with it.  (I made sure I gave it a good coat).  Ever since then I 
have been noticing my received signals and transmitted signal are around 10 
dB stronger then they used to be before applying the drippings.  I even 
think I heard a Polish station calling me on the 75 meter phone band the 
other day.  I'm pritty sure I have accurate readings here as I'm using a 
high quality Swan 350 radio.

I am now thinking of selling my amp and just have a good supply of Kielbasa 
on hand at this QTH, or at least save the drippings for future applications.

Lee, w0vt
