[Lowfer] WA returns

[Bill Ashlock]

I finally worked all the bugs out of my dual loop hardware and software. We 
are sending a large graphic 'W' East/West and a small graphic 'm' 
North/South at 185.300.  QRSS30 is the correct capture rate to see this.

As I figured, because of the cross coupling, I had to sequentially short out 
the opposing loop's resonant capacitor. In effect I have a shorted loop 
90deg to the ON loop, but this doesn't appear to effect the antenna current 
in the ON loop. The 100 ohm reactance of the shorted loop vs ~.4 resistive 
ohms for an ON loop in resonance is probably the reason.  Later, I'll check 
to see if there is any negative effect on the pattern of each loop.

No signal report with a returned capture or description of how this looks is 
considered insignificant!  <G>
