Hello again,
Sorry about the confusion. Your English was so good that it was only
as I was sending the note that I noticed that you do not reside in an
English-speaking country.

Ah, I am female. No offense taken over the use of the term "sir". I
am also not "politically correct".

The word "snip" is used on the Internet when the person replying to an
e-mail omits portions of it. Snip referrs to the omission like scissors
would snip something out of a magazine or newspaper.

Perhaps your confusion is with the words "no no". "No no" means
"forbidden". G5RVs and their twinlead or ladder line feedlines should
NOT touch or come near metal objects.

"Chicken" means "afraid". Also, "junque" is a fancy way to spell
"junk". It is often used to mean junk that is one step above trash.
Most junk is plain trash.
Hope this clarifies things.
