[Lowfer] Grabulators

[Bill Ashlock]

Oh.... so the watering hole has gone "wet", not dry :)

 

I'm sure I speak for a lot of others beside myself, Steve, in thanking you for your contribution in putting some sanity into this crazy LF propagation business as the summer season approaches. Will be looking for those grabulating signals in the very near future. And, also, now that the snow is freezing up overnight up north and one can walk into the woods, I will be able to relocate my loop to get away from that power line.
