So today America celebrates it's independence from Great(?) Britain. So is it OK to talk to them today or are they still upset over this? Should I not use my G5RV today since it was invented by a Brit?

I don't think they got over it, so it's better not to say anything. As for the antenna? Just tell everyone it's a ladderline fed OCF...

It's not too late to gather the 13 Original Colonies Special Event Stations... K2A through K2M.

Nice looking certificate; I'm looking forward to finding wallspace for it!

They would have gotten over it but our refusal to pay taxes has destabilized their modern day economy.
Hell, I'd be pissed too.
