Do Tadpoles evolve into Bunyips? Or devolve?
No, in the last panty raid one of your bloomers unfurled in the jet stream
and dragged the entire squadron across three states! "katysails" wrote in message ... -- The flying monkeys never left, they're just resting.

solar cell for mast head mounting!

No, in the last panty raid one of your bloomers unfurled in the jet stream and dragged the entire squadron across three states! Was wondering what ahppened to those. Were they the pink ones or the green ones? -- katysails s/v Chanteuse Kirie Elite 32 http://katysails.tripod.com "Women and cats will do as they please, and men and dogs should relax and get used to the idea." - Robert A.

Well I admit I don't understand the problem of stray RF -I thought the
idea was to generate as much as possible! How much better would it be and how does it balance (without a rudder)? Cheers MC Gilligan wrote: Actually MC, I was thinking about posting something creative and useful for sailors - such as an end fed sleeve dipole backstay antenna. It's balanced and has a tighter impedance range than the traditional HF backstay antenna. The radiation pattern is better, it's not as hard on the tuner and no ground is necessary. There's a lot less stray RF. You can build one for less than $50. I haven't seen one anywhere. What do you think? "The_navigator©" wrote in message ...

I'm heading out right now, but I'll email you the design tomorrow. I came up
with it when you asked the tuner question a while back. I don't think I can make any money with it, but it is useful. "The_navigator©" wrote in message ...
