Bobby Brainwave Articles

Several years back, my daughter, Grace N3ZPD, and I were co-editors of the QRN, a quarterly publication of the Antietam Radio Association in Hagerstown, MD.  One of our regular contributors was Tim Keener, N3VGS, a.k.a. Bobby Brainwave.  Tim wrote a number of interesting articles on Ham Radio antennas which, mixed with his wit, made for some interesting reading.  Oh yeh, Tim's antenna designs really work, too!
