[Lowfer] WD2XSH/7 Now on Winter Beacon Schedule

[John Bruce McCreath]

Hi Ralph, Lowfers,

Overnight I had a number of decodes of the PSK31 segment of your beacon.  Some where 100% solid and some
showed signs of QSB which "trashed" portions of the text.  The CW segment was still audible copy until around
local sunrise here on Lake Huron's eastern shoreline.  You are off to a good start for the 12-13 season.

Setup used here is a 1200 foot Beverage oriented 50 degrees true into an IC-735 with a Palstar AA30 used as a
preamp-preselector in the 735's receive loop.  Software is Cocomodem under OSX in my iMac.  This is not my
usual configuration, so I'm rather pleased with the results of a rather "lashed up" receive attempt.
