Ted, I was told there had been two rhombics, one pointed at Europe in case the Cold War ever got a little warmer!, and one to southeast Asia to support the Vietnam War. At some point after that war, the SE Asia pointing rhombic came down in a storm and was never repaired. That left just the EU one. On my K1 I had to convince an op or two in EU and RU that I truly was qrp. :-)
