Great viewing Dex! Looks like there is a reasonable amount of difference in 
the QSB between the two signals. Most pages indicate the signal average is 
the same but in some of them the big loop dominates. The test loop doesn't 
dominate in any.

Overall the signal strength isn't bad considering this is only about 200mw 
from the big loop and way off of the main lobe. I was hoping to be able to 
turn the test loop toward you tonight but the winds are supposed to be 
rather high - and temp down to zero. We'll see.

I accomplished the DFM by connecting one loop's ON/OFF signal to the varicap 
(minus the intergrating capacitor) that normally adds capacity to the xtal 
and produces the slant.

Thanks a lot,
Bill
