I think you fellows are missing the point entirely. There is
a BIG difference between "I can make it work" and "it is a
good choice".
I can make a sweep tube work on six meters, but it doesn't
mean it is a good choice in tubes for six meters.
Using a tube right at the upper limit frequency isn't the
best idea, unless you just have no other choice or are
trying to prove a point.
