Wonder how many angels will fit on the head of a pin??
Think it's time for a separate Orion list to save this

and too poor to afford an Orion.
Or maybe the resumption of the "serious contests" soon will

"serious contesters." I know they wouldn't spend all that
money just to operate a couple weekends a year......K4AVX
>& more & more & more, etc.........
