[Lowfer] SIW in TN

[Douglas D. Williams]

Had one receiver on the Lowfer Hole last night.

SJ did well all night. Saw traces of WMS, but not enough for an ID. TAG was
there, with enough for an ID on at least one screen capture. SIW good
enough for an ID on two screen captures (jpg "snip" attached).

Got my wooded portion of my land cleared last week. Sowed rye and fescue on
the bare dirt yesterday and covered it with straw. Took 150 lbs of seed,
lol. I think, rather than giving myself an additional 2+ hours of mowing
each week (in addition to the 2 hours it already takes me), that I'm just
going to "bushhog" the recently cleared land two or three times a year. I
can already tell that my reception has improved by getting those trees away
from my active whip antenna. There are still some pine trees about 50' from
the antenna, but they are on my neighbor's land. She has given me
permission to remove them, so that gives me an excuse to go buy a nice
chainsaw for Christmas. :-)

Glad it's Friday.
