Steve Hi Steve:Thanks for you nice and friendly [not belligerent response].In the 2004 you seem to be in good shape with a nice site and giving good advice to the inexperienced and not quarreling with anybody [until now].If we don't start a new 2004 radios war again maybe we can make an arrangement to have a "car race" [hard core live dxing competition] between my toyota R75 vs pinto R8B soon. For race judges my recommendations are Starman and Les [from the R8B group] and Phil and M2 [from the Icom R75 gang. Ken |
