No problem, Ed, and please know that I don't mind your questioning any 
of my thoughts or strategies.

As you know very well, getting HF set up in a motor home has its share of 
unique challenges, so any comparing of notes is good.

Sometimes, we forget the most obvious things and the easiest solutions 
aren't always readily apparent.

I think it was Kevin (K7RX) who suggested that a number of us with motor 
homes should set up a sked someday and just exchange stories and info about 
our set-ups.

Sounds like something neat to do on a cold winter Saturday afternoon.
