Hi Andy.


My named is Ed Dokus, W1GPP.

i'M JUST RETURNING TO ACTIVITY, WHOOPS, wrong case, after a long abscence  due to sport aviation.  However, I maintained my league membership and continued to peruse the articles in QST.


The recent article on the water pipe 2 meter slot antenna captured my interest and I decided to build one.  I also sprung for an Icom IC-7100.  I managed to set it up ok and read the mail on  2 meters.  After weeks of further study of the huge manual, I haven't been able to raise any response to my blind calls. 


Perhaps you or others reading this note can offer some advice to get me on the right track.


73's, Ed
