Thanks for the additional thoughts and suggestions, Mike.
Regarding the need for simpler antennas, I'm with you on that score.
I just don't have the kind of help I used to. Not because they are
unwilling; it's just that they either have left the area, or can't do that
kind of thing any longer.
So, when I returned from my one-year stay in Colorado back in 2010, I opted
for simpler wire antennas.
There are plenty of times I wish I had my tower and beam back, but I don't
think that is in the cards at least for quite a while.

On the QSK option, talk to ameritron about it.=20 a couple of hundred is
better than a couple of thousand. LOL=20 Also, perhaps your surrounded with
ham buddies and a home brewed QSK box = might be an option.=20 I believe you
can get them from the Harbach Electronics site, if not I'm = sure there's
lots of data on the web about building one.=20 I believe that Phil salis,
AD5X's site might have something there.=20 He has lots of articles and do it
your selfers. http://www.ad5x.com=20 In my case however, I'm not surrounded
buy allot of ham buddies, which = is why I got my vertical.=20 When the
hurricane took out my tower and wire antennas and I required = allot of crew
for maintenance to lower the tower and such, when it went = down, it stayed
down. LOL=20 So I bought the vertical that my XYL and I could assemble and
manage.=20 If I was in the market for a QSK option, I'd just go for the
ameritron = box and be done.=20 Just my thoughts and another bit of data for
you to poor over. LOL=20
