Re: [IRCA] WATERPROOF BOXES

["Mark Durenberger" <Mark4@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Know what you mean!  I've been trying to come up with a way to make one of 
the end-posts pivot somewhat, so I can tighten/loosen the wire as 
temperatures dictate.  Don't guffaw...I've seen measurable F/B differences 
in doing this.


Cheers!

Looking forward to the article, Mark.

I had that ebay page bookmarked, but hadn't ordered anything yet....

Meanwhile, my soggy, alligator-clipped DKAZ is still working
fairly-good. I found out that I had to make the support stakes deeper,
because of the clay/loam mix I have for soil. When it gets a few days of
rain, it gets really soft. The wind came along several days ago and blew
one of the support poles over. Live and learn!
