Mitch & Bill

Thanks for the capture! I guess the Lowfer band isn't just for winter
anymore.

FYI, I had been watching my loop current slowly dropping the past few
days. Last night it was down to 1.1 amps. Turns out I had a final
transistor go "soft" and put a new one in about 11 pm - just in time for
your midnight capture, as it turned out! Current went back up to 1.4
amps. That extra 2 dB probably made the difference between last night
and the "no show" on your capture the previous night.

Got a 5 minute burst of MP this morning at 6:30 am and then it faded out
and returned about 7:20 am along with NC.
