[Lowfer] Grabulator

[Steve Dove]

Greetings,

I'm presently up in the darkest tundric wastes of upstate NY, and so way 
out of reach of the Grabulators;  that said, when I left at the weekend 
they were working just fine; yesterday though we had some very high 
winds (again) which sometimes ping the deliberate mechanical fuses on 
some antennas.  (And sometimes non-deliberate ones.)  When it gets dark 
tonight (and there's something to look at) I'll have a look to see if 
all's behaving as expected.

Other than that, as has been remarked there has been a significant 
amount of thundery-boomy around the country, and, lest we forget, that 
is the *major reason* grabbers suddenly seem to go insensitive.

So:  tonight will tell if the thing's still Grabulating;  if not, 
apologies, but it'll stay that way until next weekend.

Oh, ah, yes  -  incidentally the two plots on the 'Lowfer' screen, Argo 
and SpecLab spawned, are hanging off exactly the *same* receiver's 
output.  Isn't it interesting how the different AGC and display laws 
bring out totally different things?

         Cheers,

                 Steve
