Nope - a pair of 813s - driving the ...... ooops !
Added 50 feet to the top-hat, carefully made sure no wires were touching
tree branches..... took 10 turns off the coil to re-resonate and here we are
at 12.5V dc and 8A..... antenna current remains same

Pouring rain here - unusual - temp 35F - going to flash-freeze to -18
tonight.  Maybe I have a nice big front acting as a reflector ?
Is there sporadic E on 137 ?

Listen at 8:50 on frequency.

Mitch
