Because he now has a seven-land call, lives in Nevada, and owns a casino.
And he does enter contests...I just can't remember his U.S. call. He was at
Visalia this year with a jacket with that call on the back of it. The logo
under his call read, "Dats a Lot of Dits".

Subject: What is C4?
Message-ID: <Pine.3.89.9508020253.A19021-0100000@netcom21>
The C4 is just a 40-m shortened dipole placed on a lengthened boom with
the C-3 (presumably) whre interaction will be least. C4XL is a 2-el 40
interlaced with a C-3. It's a lot of money, but attractive from the
standpoint of low wind and mechanical load. Maybe next year.
