Thanks for the post, Nick.

It seems like the amateur radio operators might finally have discovered what fanatical DU-DXers discovered four years ago.

Pacificon is a radio amateur convention; this last one in San Ramon,
CA. ÂAt first glance, I cannot actually find anything specific about
this topic on their website, though N6BT did give a presentation on
antennas. Â Anyone know anything further?
best wishes,
Nick
