What Rick doesn't say is that his "Birds" drive bigger "Birds"! To heck with an other hardware. ----- Original Message ----- From: <K5ur@aol.com> To: <arrl-odv@p1k.arrl.org> Sent: Saturday, May 25, 2002 9:27 AM Subject: [ARRL-ODV:7249] Re: Famous K5UR

Hey thanks, Tom!

Well, there are actually 7 Bird wattmeters. The picture just doesn't show everything (hi).

Thank goodness the picture didn't show a close up of the Bird slugs I'm using. Now, now, I'm just kidding....

Hope everyone has a super Holiday weekend.

<< June 2002 CQ magazine arrived today. Nice to see local hero Rick Roderick on the cover.

Nice clean radio shack - would never win a messy shack contest.

I'm still trying to figure out why such a world-class QRPer needs four Bird wattmeters though.
