Default RE: DX7+DS821's=Geiger counter

I know what you are saying Rafael. As a communications specialist in the military it was hard to get some people to accept the idea that an antenna could do that. To demonstrate we used to set up an old AM transmitter that transmitted around 1KW with a long wire antenna 10ft off the ground during winter, and show the soldiers the melted snow under the antenna. Most got the idea after that.
