I made a loop from Asheville to the coast to visit a cousin in Virginia 
Beach then back to Asheville for Thanksgiving with my son.  I am headed 
back to the Ozarks for a bit to finish up some things then back to 
Southern California to really finish some things.

Near Vertical Incident Skywave antennas are interesting.  I have a 
diapole that I built from copper tubing and extendable wands and a 10M 
vertical.  When parked I have a G5RV that I can hang in the trees.  I 
also have a random wire available.  I want to build a pneumatic launcher.
