Do you still have this ART-13 (with the 813 final)?
If so, what would it take to talk you out of it?

I've got a 440 rig here, that I've not even turned on in the last week.  Gave 
up on 2m around here, long ago.  Have always wanted to try 6m, but was afraid 
to, with all these houses built as close as they are ;-)

There were a whole slew of people back in those days that you probably 
remember - Ed/W5OMR, Eddie/K5OCW, Otis/K5SWK, Gene/W5HQJ, John/WA5BXO, 
Gene/WA5ATH, Frank/W5HVU, Van/W5ZED, Johnny/W5TMI, Frank/W5BCD, and the list 
goes on and on...
