Ok, the antenna on the 20 meter radio once was a Cushcraft R8. Since it 
no longer loads on any band who knows what's out there now.

Copy on the test was at best 30%. There is a station running mark on 
"our" space frequency and it's about 10 db  above the net. When he 
comes in we get wiped out. Welcome to 20 meter RTTY ...

	Enjoy!
