Hmmm, I'm really burning up the IRCA reprints CD this evening. Such a matching scheme was described in IRCA reprint A048, which is 25 years old, and I vaguely remember the guy who described it...the reprints really contain a ton of information, much of it as topical today as when they were first published in DX Monitor. ******************** Hope you'll forgive me for reprinting a recent ad from DX Monitor: IRCA Reprints The IRCA maintains a large file of articles that have appeared in past issues of DX Monitor.
