[Lowfer] (wm remote rx)

[wa3tts]

Mike: You may need some attenuation on the remote rx input as well...my guess is a rx level around minus 40 in argo would greatly assist in the linearity of results as well as having agc off on both rx and argo....

Garry, yesterday, I was testing my remote receiver which is located 
about 5 miles away.  Two tests took about a half hour each around 17:xx 
and 22:xx utc.  I put an attenuator box in the coax feed to the P.A. 
which dropped the drive level. I was documenting the P.A. input V. / A. 
while getting captures from the remote.

This morning I see from the remote capture, that my signal looks about 
the same as when I had 15 dB of attenuation in the test yesterday. I 
left the attenuator inline overnight, but with no reduction of power. 
I'll take it out of line (15:35 utc) and see if my next capture at 15:58 
utc comes back up.

The only other change is the temps and ground thaw yesterday. Today we 
are getting a little colder again. For the next few days we are going 
above 32 daytime and below at night.  I don't expect the ground to freeze.
