    The people at HF Radio On Board recommended 2 Dynaplates, they said that it
    would have been OK to use one large one, but that it was hard to find a flat
    enough place to put it. My reception & xmit is as good as everyone else in
    the same anchorage. Installation was simple, with the boat hauled for other
    work. One change I would make is to place it higher up the bilge, the
    copper foils that connect to it get splashed by bilge water now.
