The radio is right       beside me and I can tune to another station if the one I was listening       to shifts away from the frequency he was on by just angling my elbow       to reach the tuning knob.              CU L8ER, Sam, OH0NC              aka Holger              ---        þ MR/2 2.30 þ You need to be at least 10% smarter than the equipment.                      * Origin: Coming to you from the Sunny Aland Islands.
