All Listeners,
I just discovered the WM Lowfer is off the air. Something (wind or deer)
took out a support rope and both the loop and electronics box were on
the ground. I have the loop back up, but now no power out of the PA. I
will investigate that tomorrow.
I also put a temporary exciter on the revamped vertical antenna. The new
beacon is on 185304 QRSS 60 with an ID of MM. It is currently running
1/4 watt using the exciter only. It is crystal controlled and is a bit
drifty. As I get the antenna fine tuned, I will put the PA back on
line. MM is just temporary until loop testing is completed in a couple
weeks.
