I better get busy on my antennas. I haven't reacquired a preamp yet and the 
elevation rotator on my homebrew "Saebretrack/OR-360" rotator system decided 
to go loopy the the other day. I was showing 180 degrees  and the antennas 
were pointing straight at the ground! Won't work many that way! Anyway, 
great news about AO-16. Kudos to all who made this happen.
73,
