    Aren't we all? Hi. W7RM, a pioneering multi, multi  contest station (on 
a bluff above NaClH2O) claimed the saltwater was worth 10  dB. Know what? 
He's probably right. It's like magic. That's why many of those  Caribbean 
stations are loud. 
 
    Another station with a similar pedigree was  NP4A  whose station was on 
top of a mountain of copper. And he was LOUD.  It's nice to dream.
 
Cheers,
