Well, I decided to try for JH again on 181.818 and also monitor the Lowfer
watering hole.
Woke up to some snow on the ground this AM, and found that both my
computers had rebooted themselves sometime during the night, but not before
I got several screen captures.
No luck at all on JH, but did get readable IDs on (in order of signal
strength) SJ, SIW, WMS, & TAG.
