I worked in a shoe store as a teenager.

The newbies were instructed to get the wall-stretcher from the backroom
when there were too many shoes to put up.

You might try a Stetson.

Try a Dunce Cap (low capacitance) attached to your screwdriver and
manually adjust until your dip meter reads moron

What good's a hat if it don't keep the antenna dry? I think I'll keep it
though, for some odd reason my SWR's are better.

What are SWR's? Does your antenna have multiple standing wave ratios?
Were they sick? Did they have MPD? Do you SWR's look in the mirror each
morning and say "well, who are we going to be today?"

Does the standing wave ratio own something called "are better"?

Are SWR's related to 73's, and if so does the hat help 73's also? Is
your antenna still a fertile female that gets wet whenever a large
capacitance hat climbs on top?

A local school had "Spelling Award's Day" on a sign out front. When I
saw a pamphlet, it said "Selling Awards' Day".

Maybe it was award's for selling extra 's as a school project
"SWR's" and "73's" , or should I s'ay award's for s'ellin extras'
s'sses ?

73's and Happy SWR's to all,
Tom's

No.
I know a fellow who works in Tech support for a big computer company
who says they get questions likes this all the time.

There are several reasons the product has failed to meet your
expectations.
1- you have likely installed it upside down.
2- Your antenna is defective, the product is not meant to be used with
a defective antenna.
3- Exposure to weather has nullified your warranty.
4- There is an improved replacement product available and you may wish
to upgrade at a special price.

No. You simply overlooked ordering the optional umbrella covering material
to go with it.

Old Office supply joke. Goo get the paper stetcher. But I answered, you want the one in the maintenance shop or the one in Mr. Anderaon's (the owner's) Office. They VERY QUICKLY told me it was a joke. I told them, "I know." Hated me ever since.
