Trevor:

Well, you'd better hurry up and get that antenna farm going, because I'm 
ready to kick Murphy out of here once and for all!

He has lived here way too long, and with the coming of Spring to central 
lower Michigan, I hope he decides to go elsewhere really quickly!

Then again, maybe he'll find someone else to bother and will leave us both 
alone.

Here's hopin!

HI Tom, That character Murphy there must be two of them, I am sure  one
lives in my Shack. I am in the process of planning my upgrade to the Antenna
farm, so maybe if I am quick about it, I might plan things while Murphy is
at your place. HI Hi.

    John:

Well, I guess I could at least do it with 100 watts.

I just don't want to create even more trouble, since Murphy's law seems to
be my companion lately, at least as far as HF antennas go!  (grin)

Try it as is while it is that way, you never know, it may work well enough
to keep you on the air.
