This is actually a very good point in favour of whippen assist springs. Tho I still dont really see the added range of configurations possible with them to be all that usefull, nor do I see the advantage of being able to adjust BW quickly to be that overwhelming. How often are you actually going to be changing BW in this matter ? I mean really how often ?? And in the vast majority of situations we dont need more SW then a SWR 5.5 ratio can handle. btw David... as long as you are "here" for the moment :).... what do you prefer as a short for the Stanwood Ratio... SWR or SBR.... just sost we are all using the same thing. Cheers RicB -- Richard Brekne RPT, N.P.T.F.
