[Lowfer] EAR in EN90xn

[N8OOU]

Garry, Mike - tts;

Thanks to both of you for having an eye out for WM. Garry is getting 
preferential treatment right now due to the pattern on the N - S loop I 
have been experimenting with. I have tried several changes to the loop 
over the past couple weeks, but I have not seen any improvement in the 
meter readings or in the capture reports. It's interesting to see the 
captures from the north, have been fairly similar to last winters 
vertical antenna.  Ken, in northern Indiana has also made several good 
captures of WM in the past couple weeks.

Mike, Ouch on the lightning hit.  I plan to move the loop to an E - W 
orientation in the next few days. It will be interesting to see if that 
will allow WM to reach the East and West listeners. After that test, I 
will move it back to the vertical for the winter.

Again, thanks for the summer reports.
