As it was set- up the the transmitter was "ON" almost continously for at least an hour at a time with only short inter-element gaps.I will need to introduce a few rest periods and perhaps shorten the element length a little.I need to do this anyway in order to shorten the message time.Hopefully I will be back on tonight, anyone listening? 73s Laurie.
