Mike,

I read the e-mails on the board and do not send to my personal 
account.  This board gets a lot of them and I have found with yahoo 
by the 3rd reply the subject has gone away.

Starts like "what is a good repeater antenna for 2 meters"
reply #1 "well in Atlanta, GA we used a DB224 side mounted on 180 ft 
Rohn 25".
reply #2 "you lived in Atanta, when??"
reply #3 "do you have any Rohn 25 left for sale?"
reply #4 "my wife liked the DB224...we use one for the green beans in 
our garden."

This is not just this board, but about all yahoo boards.  I do like 
this board very much for it does provide a most educational source 
for repeaters, about the best around.  I recommend to all needing 
info on repeater building.

See even I changed the subject some, hi.

73, ron, n9ee/r
