Butch:

Will look for you from Kansas this afternoon on the Round Table.  Not sure 
if the band will be quite long enough yet, but we'll get you in one way or 
the other.

Regarding how the Windom compares with the Alpha Delta DXCC, it seems to do 
a bit better on 20 and 40, but some of that may be that it's about 5 to 7 
feet higher than the DXCC.  Also, of course, the Windom does much better on 
80 and 160.  I can tune the Windom across 75 and 80 meters wit the 
auto-tuner in the TS480, while the DXCC takes a considerable amount of work 
to tune via my manual tuner beyond about a 20 KC range at which it's 
resonant.  I can't get the Alpha Delta DXCC to work at all on 160, but the 
Windom works well on that band, with the help of my manual tuner.

I sure can't wait to get the Windom  working again.

I hope this helps at least a little.

I'll try and make the round table this afternoon.  Just curious how your
windom compared with the alfa?
