Hi Scott,

I will go through the setup on first occation. I don't live at the
station(1h15m away by car) and have no radio or antennas at home, so I have
to arrange with the missus :-)

I'll report back.

Thanks and 73 Bjorn LB1GB/LN8W
See you guys in SAC CW 17-18 September 2011. http://www.sactest.net
