Dual Skype -- One Computer Skype Patch


Notice there are two instances of Skype running on the same
computer.  For more information see this article.

w4uoa.mentone audio points to the rig.

w4uoa.remote audio points to the headset.

I called w4uoa.mentone from w4uoa.remote to make the connection.

No longer a need for a second bridge computer.

W8JI Antenna Center Failed

3/16" steel cable center support has failed.  Not sure what the

the Lookout Mountain Antenna Range.  Makes me wonder if it is
time to bring down the loop corners and check the line for chaffing.
