im thinking about polishing the copper. im sure many years later itll end up Greenish like our sexy ms liberty!
 
yes i have. i can only take so much of the nonsense on that rptr

understand,.... but,.... if you can make it over the simplex remote bases with the high gain antennas, pointed right at the repeater on the input,...... then the j-pole must work
