 I have been running FST4W (120 second) for the past several nights from my QTH here in the mountainsof western North Carolina (EM85sg), without the receive bandpass filter (which was helpful in eliminatingthe nearby NDB at 379kHz and the broadcast station at 550kHz, but at the expense of 8-9dB of in-bandattenuation). Last night gave fairly typical results, with about 89 spots of these stations:

| Timestamp | Call | MHz | SNR | Drift | Grid | Pwr | Reporter | RGrid | km | az | Mode | # Spots |
|  2022-10-20 10:44  |  VE3CIQ  |  0.475652  |  -30  |  0  |  FN15wc  |  1  |  N1HO  |  EM85sg  |  1218  |  208  |  2  |  1  |

It appears that we'll be in for a good season, since W7IUV and I have been hearing each other fairly regularly over the past few nights. However, I will be shutting down from here in about a week, and hopefully will resume operation from south Florida (EL96xh) in late November, albeit with a much smaller antenna.
Very 73 to all,
Brandy, N1HO

  Last night was awesome for reception of FW5, FW2, and wspr. Hope to see that kind of activity again tonight.
