As many of you know, there are a handful of us that always monitor 223.5.  There are some pretty good random ragchews as well.  Also, there has been some interest in starting a once a month 220 net so now's the time to get that antenna built!!  I also know that a lot of people have a tri-band HT and one of these inexpensive and highly functional ground-planes with a little stretch of coax and some elevation can turn that HT into a 220 base station....(I know because Bill helped me build one a few months ago, and that's what I did)   Not to speak for Bill, but I'm pretty sure he still has one or two 220 loaner rigs available for use.
