Hi All:  A first for me thanks to the propagation gods I came within 3dB of a W1VD SNR.....

I started out the evening missing 22 dB of signal level. It warmed up here and an RG-6 F-connection must have "moved" on the transmission line.

Quick resistance check showed high ohms, applied 24VDC via a resistor to the transmission line and it came back to the usual ohms reading.  XEB went from -21 to +1....

Quiet tonite with light rain & mist, hope it stays that way....
