... some more Mosley bashing...

2014 ARRL DX (SOHP):  1.3M, 5th place regional, 3rd place in W5
2014 CQ WPX (TB/SE) : 4.9M, 2nd place USA, all-time prefix record holder for
W5 in TB/SE
2014 CQ WWDX (SOHP): 2.3M, awaiting results publication

2014 antennas: a very battered and seized-up, 30+ year old Mosley TA33 and a
wire vertical.     Does it really matter?   It got me on the air last year
and I'm grateful for that.  I assure you when I get around to putting up the
new antennas later, the old TA33 may come down but will not be discarded.

Imagine how high his score could have been with 2 or 3 db more!
