I'd suggest sitting down and actually reading Part 97 once in a while. I have to admit that I "remember" things being in there that have been deleted years ago. Worse yet, I might remember things being in Part 97 that are really just folklore from wise, old repeater builders. In my view, the rules are surprisingly vague and flexible, which is generally a good thing. Good engineering judgment should always apply. But we don't actually debate Part 97 issues on this list anyway, right? :-) 73, Bob K0NR
