   I looked at the WindGuard TV antenna today and thought it just looked   
   like a multi-element beam instead of a LPA, I don't know?????   
      
   Didn't think to notice if it has one boom or two as Roy asked in   
   the next message, I'll have to take another look see to find out.   
      
   ... Have you checked your smoke detector batteries, LATELY?!
