[Lowfer] Home late-but on at near full power 74.3213...

[Bob Raide]

Jd;
That's too bad about the computer.  They don't like it too cold or too hot but am sure it will come back once brought back to room temp.  I'll bet you would have seen him he was really cranking in on Jay's grabber.  
Hope you can make it tomorrow.

Mighty good signals tonight despite the ice at your end.  This was the 
lowest sensitivity capture I ran.
 
The signal strengths had largely stabilized by then, so I switched to 
looking for DK7FC.  When I returned to look about two hours later, I 
discovered the weakest link in my setup.
 
The truck lets me survive more trips in deeper cold than I would have even 
thought of trying two weeks ago!  (About +2 degrees here right now.)  The 
radio, its battery, and the generator all did fine, too.  But the computer 
didn't survive more than about an hour on that last charge.  No DK7FC for my 
trouble, either--just a steady carrier from somewhere, about 1 Hz lower than 
where I expected to see Stefan.
 
If I can persuade myself to get up in the morning and if the computer thaws 
out successfully, I'll watch for you again.
