[time-nuts] L1/L2 survey antenna $125 new

[Dana Whitlow]

Some people would probably say that the alcoholized iced tea is more
effective.
Long Island Iced Tea IIRC.

I get along pretty well with ordinary Coca Cola, alternating between diet
and regular.
It doesn't have much odor, but it sure tastes a lot better than coffee!

BTW, I have a fair number of TNC(m) to SMA(f) adapters I "bought" on ebay
while
I lived in Oregon.  I was buying some BNC(m) to SMA(f) adapters, and the guy
mentioned that he also had the TNC version.  When I asked what he wanted for
the TNC version, he said he'd throw some in for free, and he did.  Anyway,
if you
ever need such a thing, let me know.

Cheers,

Dana
