[Lowfer] /16 on 505.25kc tonight (506.00?)

[Mike-WE0H]

Ah funny. Yes you found it Steve!!! hi hi...I moved up the band to give 
Pat /6 some room. Now that it is below zero, the wet snow/ground is 
frozen and the SWR is going back down. I am finding the antenna 
feedpoint impedance changes wildly with the depth of the frost and today 
after it rained all day being above freezing temps. I need a motor run a 
tap switch as well as a motor on the variometer so I don't have to go 
outside freezing my behind off changing taps and adjusting the 
variometer. I miss those no additional tuning needed Ashlock loops...
