Thanks Dave.  I'll be looking for you!

Keep an ear out also for W3WH & K3VX in Armstrong (Bill is an Argonaut V
owner, and I got the Corsair II from him... we won't discuss his late,
lamented Omni VI and it's fate at Field Day); N3ZK from Venango; and N3ZNI
Mobile.

It'll be fun.

And... as many others on the list who want to exercise their Ten Tec's this
weekend, I'm hoping to work all of you too!

I'll be there, too, Ron; from Dauphin county with an Omni VI+ (it is a model
564, so it's OK to call it a plus) and a Hercules II. I hope I'm not out of
line to call it a High-Power entry (after all, it is only at about 500 watts
and that is not an exact measurement)

see you on the air

Well Jim, it was pretty obvious that the name "Closet Kilowatt" was a 
marketing term for the entire station, and obviously referred to it's 
approximate power consumption in the neighborhood of about a kW. 

I'm with Warren.  I can't believe you made such a fuss about what was 
clearly not meant to be an exact technical measurement. 

I could be more specific, but I see no point in raking the obvious over the 
coals. 

73, and hope to work you this weekend in the Pa QSO Party from my trusty 
Corsair II station... 
[which, strictly speaking, and in the interests of full disclosure, has a 
Corsair (I) PS & VFO, so it's not a "true" Corsair II cosmetically.  Just so

you know, so you don't berate me over an inaccurate description later]

Huh? The difference between 1kW and 500W is 3 dB. I know folks who 
will go to war for only 1dB!  Of course, they are folks who USE 
their radios, not worship them.
