[Lowfer] EAR report

[Michael Sapp]

OK J.B., interesting with the tilt on the loop for E & H capture. Not 
practical for me to try that here on the EWEs, as they would catch deer and 
small children (hi). When I get a real robust capture of EAR some evening, 
I'll send it up to you. I should be able to hear it most evenings. 73 Mike
