Congratulations, Les. I know from experience how much work goes into these
arrays - and how satisfying getting them on the air can be.

Listened to the Sunday morning (UTC) opening on my bedside Sony IC2010 with
3 foot whip antenna. You were readable, say 4x1 and louder than N2RK who
called in after you worked Jon G0NVD. I'm sure, from experience of running
to the shack when I hear someone at S1 on the Sony, that you'd hve been a
good S9 on my 2ele array. It's frustrating having no shack and no
antennas. Roll on the move to CA! You may find that further tweaking of
the settings is just part of the 'pride of ownerhip' of the array- or you
may wring an extra few tenths of a dB of gain out of it. Best of luck,
whatever.

I'll be interested to compare notes from 6-land once I've found a place
with room for an antenna farm
