I guess I'm an old fashioned type Bill. Never been on RTTY and pbly never
will so I just tend to ignore the mode!
I never could get a straight answer why Ameritron uses a Pi-L on 80-160M.
One "expert" claimed it was to improve efficiency. If so he neglected to
transfer that new found efficiency out to the load.
Glad to hear about the 91b...I hear praises also but have only been
inside one once.
