Hi Brett,
Wow, I didn't expect an answer. Well you found me out, I know nothing about SSB's and from my limited reading, I thought a used unit that functions would help with cost. After the original posting, I got lost reading about SSBs installation and requirements, and so on.
Short answer, Yeah I would love the unit and in Washington D.C. but travel up 81 to 84 where Pennsylvania crosses into NY.
I am also having my rigging updated this year and your advice about backstay insulators is great timing.
I will follow up with a PM soon to continue this discussion.
