[Lowfer] WM Ellsworth finally back on the air

[Bill Ashlock]

Thanks Jay,

Looks like I picked up some strength on my Ellsworth beacon. It's a fairly good angle off this E/W pointed loop to your base from up here, so your snapshots will probably always favor the Andover beacon. My measurements today on the new conductor (actually RG-11, not RG-8) show the 3.6 db theoretical improvement to be pretty close to actual.
