We will appreciate the points, Joe -- having another major 160M 
player will help a lot!

HEY GUYS -- It looks like a seat is available at the N4UK M/S.  
Someone whose 160 antenna is meager or non-existent could have
an eye-opening experience operating at Ken's 160M powerhouse!

73, Gary
K9AY

Go SECC!
