[Lowfer] An extended visit at the Watering Hole Tonite

[Michael Sapp]

Garry, Mike, Andy, Doug & All:  Seems like I have power line noise problems 
all this week. Occassionally it lets up as can be observed in this 
brightness & contrast enhanced view

of the watering hole earlier this afternoon.  Note darker background 
waterfall area on the capture.  Rain due here on the weekend may give me a 
quiet day...

This noise level in the above capture is rather subdued vs days earlier, but 
still limiting weak signal reception...

73, Mike wa3tts
