Hi Marlaina, Welcome to the list; I used to live in Washington State so know a few hams from that area, including a couple on this list. What do you think of the SteppIR and do you have the SmallIR or the BigIR vertical? I'm seriously thinking of getting one of their yagis. They certainly have a novel design, and all the reviews I've read are very positive.

Long time since I have been active on list, but am looking forward to being back. Just wanted to say hello rather than lurking. No need to reply on list, as this message contains absolutely nothing significant, hi hi! Just wanted to say hello to ol old friends, and looking forward to making new ones.
