Last night I got good captures of WEB on both my Kenwood(75mtr ant) and Elector SDR rec(pa0rdt mini whip). First part 15 capture on the SDR. Last spring I was unsucessful with the SDR. It turns out the lowpass filter I was using has a 12 to 15 db loss. With out it ahead of the SDR there is some BC band
spurious signals but didnt bother WEB. Argo showed about 1db difference between the two setups. 

I need to fabricate some sort of low pass with less loss. Dont remember that much loss in earlier tests, maybe filter has been damaged.
