Many thanks for the report. Using a Bencher SkyHawk tribander @
73'... works better than ANY previous tribander I've ever owned.
Really sturdy, too.

You took a really DEEP (e.g. down to pure ESP copy) when you gave
your QTH, so I (wrongly) assumed you'd sent GA... my copying error,
certainly NOT your fist! The QRN out here in the midwest last night
was pretty horrid, and I was having problems copying just about
everyone on 40M... there were a few who were decent copy, but
generally, it was difficult at best.
73,
Tom
