You kinda relate SWR meters to "time", huh? Well, I am used to being fooled
by "non-existant" "things"-"values" which we plug into formulas and somehow
get workable results back!!!! The "Unified Antenna Theory" will be a nice
thing--when it finally gets here... so, a SWR meter which doesn't work as
"mentally modeled"--hey, perfectly understandable!!!

So, not in anyway in disagreement with you, just poking a bit of fun at the
way things work...

Like I say, I miss the old PA tubes--dull almost dark red glow from the
plates--good to excellent... brighter almost cherry red--danger will
robinson!!!!... orange'ish-red--time to buy new finals!!!!! grin

I am at a complete loss on the email... may have picked up some malicious
email from a "fan" of mine... have worn myself out attempting to find the
problem--you can count on me NOT giving up until it is fixed... I keep a
seperate computer for use here--this demonstrates why...

Warmest regards,
John

| Could you check that you can receive other people's emails?
