Roger, et al. ...

     I have to confirm observing this on my set-up...there have been 
strong CW signals on 10 meters, and they appear through both my 
XV144*/and/* my XV432. I first noticed this on my XV432, and it gave me 
quite a start to hear European CW signals "on" 432 MHz (don't I wish!!). 
Both xvtrs are connected to my K3/P3 combination. This is one of the 
downsides of too many spots on the solar disk, I guess............

     One (im)pertinent observation: When I noticed this, I switched my 
XV432 antenna input over to a UHF dummy load, connected through good 
coax and only about 2 feet away. The signals did not diminish in 
strength, so they were not coming in through the XV432 antenna input.
