Since it is 9dB down from a screwdriver or
bugcatcher, one wonders why. :-)

==========================================

9dB is only one and a half S-units. (Ignoring Roy's ancient S-meter).

The Outbacker may still be well worth the money!

But that's just the Capitalist System which places Religion above
scientific facts. Sorry for becoming a little off topic.

A drop of South African Western Cape helps to keep things in
proportion.

9 dB is also the gain of a good long-boom 4 element Yagi over a dipole.
You'd have to drink more than a spot of the wine to not see the difference.

Roy, you have the unfortunate habit of changing the subject in the
middle of a discussion in the forlorn hope of it not being noticed.

What have 4-element yagis to do with Outbackers?

By switching to Chinese "Great Wall" white wine I can make my S-meter
read whatever I fancy. You ought to try some!

But perhaps you are a teetotaller who has never had the pleasure. If
in fact you are indeed a teetotaller, then, I must admit, you deserve
congratulations for having evaded the 'demon' drink.

It's all in the genes, anyway! I acquired it from my Grandmother.

How about someone who simply doesn't LIKE alcoholic drinks? :) I've had a
sip of a beer twice in 15 years. Like some that don't like broccoli, I don't
like liquor. It all tastes horrible to me and I'd rather have a unspiked
Coke! It all tastes the same to me----Nasty! YUCK! BARF! The Coke tastes
sweet and, when I drive home afterwards, I know where home IS and can get
there unassisted! The only "bad" effect from a Coca Cola is, it makes me
have to pee! :) After 57 years, I think I can do without for a few more. Now
the broccoli? I love broccoli casserole!! ;)

Or Amaretto, or Drambuie, or Captain Morgans in a vanilla Pepsi, or...

What I don't know at this stage won't hurt me. Not to be argumentive, but I
have heard that before. "But you'll LOVE this beer or that wine or that
whiskey". I can't tell the difference; the "great" beer or the wonderful
wine tastes the same as the "cheap" (?) stuff. BARF! ;) The Coca Cola still
wins! LOL!

I used to think that way too. Only bought the cheap stuff until one day
someone gave me a bottle of Glenlivet scotch. I rarely buy it because I
don't want to mortgage the house, but now I *do* know the difference. :-)
