Thanks for the capture Mike. I agree it is not a positive id, but I am
convinced you are seeing WM. I need to re-position the loop today to
get the vertical sections further away from some tree limbs. That might
have a small impact on the signal level.
I am happy to get that result on the first night! Thanks for listening.
