Hi Mark,

My girlfriend some time back could work Alaska from here through her
dummy load (for the same reasons you described, not that she chose to
do it this way).

I can only imagine that Arthur will re-discover that poor isolation
problem and describe it as a "Faraday Paradox Enhancement" with
inverse shielding efficiency. It may lead to anti-gravity research
that finally disproves Einstein's theory of Brownian motion (Art's
final nail in the casket of that historical fraud).

Hi Arthur,

Still peaking at these postings, aren't you?
