Thanks, Rich.  I wasn't aware of that issue, and your idea to look at EHams is 
a great idea that I should've suggested to that OM.

Subject: gap


Hello;
I gave gap some serious consideration until I took a look at some of the =
comments on e-ham.  I'm not familiar with the gap that Fred is using but =
the gap titan had some issues.  I was particularly struck by the fact =
that one operators antenna caught on fire.  Now in honesty I suspect he =
was running some power and that might not happen with 100 watts.
I tried looking for the 05 that John mentioned and found lots of stuff =
that I hope I never need to care about.
Richard
