Hi Roger
Would that field day date be too late? I had planned to be in
Canberra that weekend for a muzzle loader shoot anyhow and also have some
broadcaster bits for Lezlie. I am in the process of pulling up my
broadcasters for checking and refurbishment and could loan one of those to
the project. Dont think I could get this done much before that date though.
We would also need a good rabbit pepper that we know works - I dont have
one - not much trouble with bunnies. Brigid Grote or Graham Cranney most
likely do have peppers but closer to home is probably better - any thoughts?
Let me know soon if this would be suitable as I had better get onto it.
Cheers
Lloyd Charles
