Thanks for the spots Larry ill covert to FW2 tonight and see if the extra dB or two helps - Neil - can you run two instances of wspr and fw2 - ?

Its dry at last but antenna showing high local losses/flatter Q - will improve when we lose the leaves and sap becomes less / ground improvements - I dont have a couple of the long radials out but probably makes little to no difference at this moment

Seeing some activity posted here from Neil, John, and John, I took some time and set up one of my SDR's to monitor WSPR and FST4W-120.

The first night I heard VE7BDQ quite well. The second night only one decode of WB0TEM. Then nothing for a couple nights.

Last night I heard VE7BDQ again and also, surprise, KL7L. Laurence was not strong, peaking at -17, but was decoded 12 times.

I will leave the SDR on and monitoring WSPR and FST4W-120 for a while. I really hope to see some west side activity.

73,
