Laurence, from what one of the guys back east discovered, the loops are not
much affected by the trees. They seem to stay tuned no matter what the wx
condx or the tree sap variations.

I, too, have been surprised at being decoded by so many, and especially by
YOU, this close to summer soltice. I would never have guessed it. But also,
we now know DEX made a trans-atlantic on 8.9 kHz the other day. That was a
real shocker. Paul in the UK has some pretty good VLF rx systems !!

This LMF, LF, and VLF activity is blowing my mind...

Cheers,
Neil
