!!  It did?  I sure don't remember seeing reference to that in the last
report but I'm glad to hear it.  
 
What was the "positive effect"?  How was it determined or measured?
 
Like everybody else, I'm *really* looking forward to seeing the HGA
deploy -- if only because I'm an antennas and propagation person who
would hate to see a problem with the antenna spoil the mission :-)
