Thanks again Corey. Article & Pictures are now the top 2/3 of Page 5 of the August newsletter.
Yes, I will send you a copy when it's all done!
Cool beans Ron :)
Compiling the PDF on the other computer as I type this.
Corey, if you can PM me an email address, I'll send it off to you -- if not tonight, in the morning.
And if anyone else would like a copy... ditto. (Or post the emails here if you're OK with that)
I'd like one, if you please to cquart@yahoo.comQuote:

I wish I had snuck this comment in before you got the article done:
Some people have complained about the receiver being as wide as a barn door. It's possible, however I did not see this. I tested again (No contacts) on the top of city hall with a better antenna. Our city hall is peppered with transmitter antennas (PD repeaters, etc etc). Didn't experience any intermod on the ham bands (Except for 444 MHz... It's an odd frequency here, I get intermod issues there with other rigs as well).
Hmm. Yeah, me too. Oh well.
Gentlemen (or at least you three), you should be seeing the August WASHRag in your email boxes long before you read this post. I'm sending it out from my work email immediately after posting this [I forward a copy to work to (a) make sure it actually went out, and (b) print a nice crisp copy on the company laser printers -- yes, I have permission!]
