Isn't that the truth!?! What a colossal waste of time for HIM and ME.
Pretty stupid operating IMO.
BTW, this is why I sent a new Q signal request to the ARRL:
QDC -- What's your damn call?

Ola Angel,
I would appreciate to receive some suggestions you receive, being one of my

Best 73 and I look forward to receive your news.

I was mentioneing about categories! Perhaps my english is not good enough. No
reason to make fun. Would you like to establish a conversation in Portuguese?
It would be better (for me at least!).
Hey! I still don't know when the first CQWW happened. I think you don't
either(HI!)

You can dig it up yourself by sending a message to fileserv@tgv.com
that says

where yyyy-mm is the year and month of the monthly archive you wish to

Just this fall, we (KS9K and myself) did the point at the sky method
on our four new homebrew 48' boom, 6el 15M beams.
Although we did not record SWR values for "sky method" versus "on the tower",
I am very pleased with the performance on the tower. When first built,
they did not have a good match when using the sky method. We adjusted
them accordingly using the sky method and they look (work) great on the
tower.
As for how you point a 48 foot boom into the sky, we did it.
Piece of cake.
I think it worked great and will definitely do it again.
