Now Bill (Hall), You should know that I have absolutely nothing against Muslim antennae per se. As I have said, I applaud most forms of Middle Eastern worship transmission design. (Not just reception but transmission as well.) An antenna rotator woks really nicely under a Star of David, which is probably why the one atop my local 'gog follows me down the street as I nosh on ham and pickle sandwiches. (Lucky I haven't copped a lightning bolt really.) But, it all comes down to having the right connections in high places. ...and a reel of 75 Ohm cable. Ah, Friday arvo. Time to open a packet of mosque LifeSavers. Cheers, Michael Michael E. Granat T/as Write Ideas Technical Communicator Without Prejudice. E&OE.
