If any of you southerners ever get up to this part of the world, go visit 
VE6JY's antenna farm in Lamont, AB. His setup will make any DXer drool with 
envy. He must have 20 towers topped with rotators and yagis, plus various 
beverages and EWE's, covering all ham bands. All cables etc run underground 
and all his equipment is in the upper half of a huge workshop. Very 
impressive. One member on this list visits it quite often.
