    More delays. No swr meter yet so holding off on start up till swr meter / antenna matcher and the new antenna get hear, so I'm going to use the time to find some dress rings (flash washers) for around round switches.. They need a bit of movement to line up straight, so will weld up my poles and WAIT some more.. and more life sux with no cb....

    Keep in mind ( PLEASE ) This hole set up apart from the radio's, and main electronic's has been built out of scrap and recycled gear.. I hate to throw out useful stuff, even wire... perspex gets used to the last little bit..
