[Michael Sapp]

Neil & John & All:  I was somewhat suprised to have three BDQ captures last 
nite

  Had my NE/SW  EWE antenna on the NE transformer watching XEB/2 on 185 kHz 
and had the LF converter output split to a second
receiver for 600M WSPR.  The t-storm noise in TN & GA last nite was likely 
in the null zone of my EWE antenna in the NE
receiving direction, which likely helped the SNR.  Past month or so I have 
been listening in omni mode (EWE unterminated) thinking
that would be better than having the antenna  pattern's main lobe close to 
90 degrees off of the BDQ and XSH/20 directions.
Obviously a wrong assumption. Noise manangement wins again.....

73, Mike wa3tts
