The BC Special would be the Run antenna on 160 & 80M.  

On 40 ...... two half squares - one broadside NE/SW and one broadside
NW/SE supported by DK9SQ masts would be like having a pair of phased
HF2Vs.  Would the half squares be as good as the BC special?  Dunno -
close call!

Loops on 15 & 10 instead of the TA-33jr?  It's going to take masts to
hold them up.  It's going to take one mast to hold up the TA-33jr. 
Not sure which is lighter - close call!!

Will WNEM host the telethon?  More likely an Infomercial at 3 to 4 AM!
