[Lowfer] Whirl Wide WEB

That's the all time best WEB here. Condx have been unusual - great on some 
paths/times and just so so on others.

That was the K9AY into the 2N5109 (LT1001A actually) preamplifier - still 
the go to antenna for 137/185 kHz. This year I've added a 1000' BOG 
(beverage on ground) pointing toward 240 degrees and this antenna is about 
equal to the K9AY on 137/185 kHz...but beats the K9AY on 500 kHz hands down.
