[Lowfer] Lowfer MLS in EN90xn

[Michael Sapp]

Garry & All:  MLS here with 16 & 24 bit captures close to 186.200.  From the 
local backyard EN90 location MLS is 18~19 dB above the noise with my LF
converter driving a hybird divider at the 3.0MHz IF (add ~ 6db for divider 
loss) and add another 5~6 dB for MLS being off the side of the EWE antenna. 
I would
expect MLS to be audible when I eventually get a second EWE antenna up 
pointed to the NW....

16 bit on FT-817 with TCXO

24 bit on FT-847 no TCXO (but stable temp in shack)

Upward drift also noted here. Possible the IF rx warm-up drift countered my 
first "flat line" observation on the FT-847....
