Interesting. MP was fairly solid yesterday evening, but only faint
traces of
signal were visible after 2300 local time. Not even the usual
pre-sunrise
blast. And this time, I'm on the right antenna!

Was tuned to 185.3 last nite and no results thru AM. At 7:30A I found
MP at 137.78 w/ solid sig., using 30 sec dots and vert w/ 3-wire top
hat. But had made one change Sunday evening.

Changed the vert loading coil to a larger 5-gal pail coil, al la
Mitch's pail mount, an increase in L and find that 137 response is up,
though 185 is off.

I'll reduce the effective coil to lower L tonite and continue to
monitor 185.3.
