[AT] A little Off Topic - Fuel usage

[charliehill]

Jerry would you mind sharing how you have your generator set up on that 
engine, what sort of governor, etc?  Also, tell us about your HAM rig.  I've 
recently gotten interested in amatuer radio.  Don't have a ticket or any 
equipment yet.  Just trying to figure out what, if anything, I want.

thanks

Charlie
