    NO Ten Tecs in my collection. That is one brand not found. Would like to add an Argonaut some day.

    My main problem is that I am at WORK when the band is open, and it is closed when I get home.
    Just checked the other night. 20 dead, 17 and 15, notta peep. I get in my DXing Sunday morning before church. Can't work DX if the band isn't open. I miss the great SUNSPOT years where 20 would be open around the clock.

    OH, I get out alright. I have the QSLs to prove it.

    Every band is always open somewhere.

    So, why would you post the following:
    I can barely work out of California on 40 and 80
    20 is a DOG FIGHT
    17 I only have a miserable vertical on
    15 I do pretty well on
    12: same vertical problem
    10: not open very often, but when open, great.

    What? What? No! Say it ain't so, Joe!

    Well, seriously, I'll tell you what Pat. I may be looking at thinning the herd a little, soon, so there may just be a PM-2B or an Argonaut 505 in your future. I like having the rigs here, but I'm just not using them that much, and there are a few things I do need in the shack, so we shall see. (But don't hold your breath)
