supposed to unkey the rig before switching it?

I've always assumed the later, but...

Silly questions deserve silly answers, no one with any sense buys a Swan.

Do it while you are tuning, if it doesnt smoke you are fine.

Who says I bought it?

I didn't figure you would know.

Ahem, Lazy, this IS the "boatanchor" forum (and not a personal political
soapbox) where one could expect to ask BA questions, even about a Swan,
without the insults.

Really, look at some of my posted questions in the last week and the
crap I have gotten from many in this group.


I was simply giving Chuckee what he has been giving me the last week - a
hard time.

Research some of the undeserved crap I have gotten from him.

I didnt mean it as an insult tho,no one I know would pay money for a Swan..

Look at the acrimonious posture you have adopted in this venue in the
past week or two since you 'surfaced'.

Ok, I'll buy the part about insults but why in the hell would a real ham
come onto a boatanchor group out of the clear blue and start ragging
guys about buying a Swan?

Tell us which BAs you're running so that we can have as much fun ragging
down your gear. Swan is an easy mark...give us something to get our
teeth into.
