Not very good reception here.. Still plagued with horrendous powerline noise..
At 3 am this morning, it was at 35 dB over S-9.. At 11 am this morning it was at 20 dB over, 
and now, and 1:15 pm it is gone... But.. It will be back, and usually with a vengenance..
I breadboarded a crude RC High Pass filter that helps considerably, and does not have 
extensive insertion loss.. It is between the antenna, and balun, and it helps to shave
the edge off of the powerline noise, as well as some grundge from a video game system
power supply...

Hope everyone has a great weekend :
