Hi Jay, I was speaking of Vinnie's Imax. I don't know what they
are rated for.

I already know your antenna can handle it and more! :)

According to the manual, it is tested at 5,000 watts. Sounds
rather high.

Does it matter that it's in a tree?

Only if you want to see a huge forest fire !!!

Not with 100 dinkers. (is it in a field of dead pines?) :)

At any rate, that may change the antenna's function a bit. (?)

I'm still concerned about the lightning strikes. Your mast is
living plant material.

But it's not as high as many of the live, wet trees. I think I am
ground pretty good, just by the quietness of the radio. I don't hear
any static at all. Everything is super quiet.

Anyway, I am going to eat a bag of chips before I go to bed.

Good night !!!!!!

Donut forget to stuff your coax in a jim beam bottle before you turn
in.

Remove the bottle rockets first though :)

Bottle rockets and jim beam, what a combo! :)

Love my Beam!

And an empty Beam bottle makes a dangerously accurate aiming device :)

Try it!!!

How fast can ya say mama la pinga pato??

Oh, you REALLY like them keying up for seven minute speeches, eh? : )

If I only knew what they were preaching about.
;)

I got this one guy down here,,,for years I have been dropping in on his
"private" freq just to say hello with the few words I know. He even has
an endearing , er, term for me when I say hello. He's always talking to
Puerto Rico, all day long, yet he still loses it when I key up to say
hello. I thought after all these years he'd mellow. Know how I found him
originally? I followed the bleed...and I still have no clue where he is
located, but I know when I key up, he don't hear whatta wico at all!
Betcha he's related to those in your receive!
