Antenna Expert L. B. Cebik, W4RNL (SK)
The godfather of modern antenna design. I have many of his books and articles around here and reference his work all the time. I had a QSO with him over a year ago. I did not realize the person I was talking to about my windom and how to improve it was Cebik until I checked him in QRZ later that night. I wish I would have sent him a QSL.... 73 om. Linkage.
Neat antenna design. Very small and portable.
Read the reviews on eham and the others. Looks good. I think I am going to get one. Tak-tenna.

Mass Shooting Near Boston,, Right Wing Extremists Shoot Govt. Agents...
Members of a radical militia group ambushed government agents in a massive shootout today at a small town near Boston. Government agents as part of an ongoing investigation into the groups criminal activities were preparing to raid known stockpiles of military weapons and ammunition and arrest group leaders.
Tipped off about the raid several members of the group, led by a Colonel James Barrett moved their stockpile of assault weapons (including artillery pieces) to alternate locations. They then gathered members of their group at a local bar Wright's Tavern and made plans to ambush the agents they knew were coming. They then placed armed members at key points in preparation for the attack.
The arriving agents soon spotted several armed men. Despite the show of force, they were not to be intimidated and moved into position. Government agents, under orders to not fire unless fired upon, took up defensive positions.
Believing that government agents were burning their buildings the militia group advanced on the agents positions. Government agents fired warning shots hoping to stop the assault. In the confusion several agents directly engaged members of the advancing militia group, who then returned fire.
Several men were killed and wounded in the ensuing gun battle.
Government agents have identified and issued warrants for the key leadership of the militia group. Among the wanted are James Barrett, Paul Revere, William Dawes, John Parker, Samuel Prescott, Samuel Adams and John Hancock.

Needing feedback from the readers.

Another state getting it right
People as young as 18 can now buy and own handguns in South Carolina. Governor Mark Sanford signed a bill into law Wednesday to lower the minimum age from 21.
"People who are old enough to fight and die in the military should be able to purchase handguns, and the bill will put our laws more in line with those of other states," Sanford spokesman Joel Sawyer said. YEP Linky
