Bob & All: Signal seemed to be down a few dB last nite, the noise level up, or both.....

12 or so dB above peak noise, a few to several more for average noise.....

I switched from my SW to NE transformer about half way through the second capture, EWE seems to respond backwards

at 29.5 kHz for the few dB F/B it has.  Technical apologies for my thermal drift.....


Around 0600 utc past few nites Radio France International has been booming in on 162 kHz, very Q5 and S9+10....


Also noticed HWU on 18.3 kHz has been active of late.
