Big Guns,

      Gee, "rotatable dipoles at 80 and 85 feet", "phased verticals", "40-M 
beams at 70 feet", it's no wonder I get excited when I work something on 
the low bands.  I don't have anything higher than 40-feet and just wires 
for those frequencies.  In fact, I have to use my 80-M dipole (at 30-feet) 
and a tuner to work 40-M since my 40-M vertical died.

      Can't wait 'til I move up on the hill and get up some REAL 
antennas.  I'll probably go into shock the first time I tune the bands.  I 
think I will have a paramedic on standby, just in case.
