> Hi Grant:
> No, this is a vanity call sign that I just received from the FCC. My
> original call was WA0JIH and was issued in about 1965 or so. When I came
to
> Portland I looked forward to getting back on the air but life in an
> apartment wasn't conducive so we waited. We are in a little infill
> subdivision with those blasted Covenants, Conditions, and Restrictions. I
> was able to persuade the other owners to let me put up a vertical (a
> Butternut) and just recently got the MFJ SWR gizmo. I also have an end
fed
> wire around the eave of some of the house. Now I can find out its
resonance
> and then add or subtract the length. I am retired. What a joy! The OMNI
VI+
> that I just took delivery on came two weeks ago and I've been at it ever
> since. Thanks for your note.
> 73,
> Jim K7JIH
