Hi All: This past Xmas, I went to the Aerospace Xmas party and had a good time. At the party they had a Xmas raffel. Thank god I bought a lot of tickets. We all had a good time, good friendship, conversation, and food. Most all of us talked about our station and what we would do if we had the $$$s. After the meal, the raffel was held. Last time one member won a 706 mobile rig brand new in the box. This time I won a Verticle Antenna, 10 bands, 1500 Watts, MFJ-1798. You can imagine how happy I was for this Xmas present. I now have a large, ground independent, verticle ant. Now the problem will be, where to put this up and how. Believe me, we'll find a way and place. Wish me luck in this future endeavor, and thank Santa very much...Archiie KD6OLH
