when making up your line the loop on the handel end should be slightly longer, i realy like this set up because at the local contest you can string out more than one airplane to fly and have handel switched from plane  to plane in about 5 seconds. i use my thumb to pop it off and on. beer sounds good how long does it take to drive to your house from las vegas?

Bob Fogg makes a great little BOLT ON monoline connection.
I got two and they are great...I hope he is still making them.

Ned's design, at least I think he designed it, is shown. Bob's deal is neat, strong and works like a charm.

Gotta admit that Fogg's unit is a bit more labor...
Happy New Year!

Hi John,

Is the Forum OK?  Can't get it to come thru.
Let me know what you think of the Delta Sport-Jet.
