Hi Peter,

Good to hear the RX loop is working. Now wait until this cold front 
makes it past you and you won't be having a nice day anymore. It was 32F 
with heavy rain all day and at 3pm the front came through. 4pm it was 8F 
and now it is 0F out there with about a 20-30 MPH wind. Ugly weather for 
sure. Lots of real thick ice on the ground.

Mike
