[Lowfer] Lowfer SIW

[Garry]

Repaired a couple of damaged ICs and a dead 5 V regulator and returned 
the SIW lowfer to operation yesterday. Just in time for 50+ mph winds. 
Saw dropouts and glitches overnight in slash mode at 185.185 kHz but 
currently the QRSS30/60 at 185.2993 kHz looks fine. Tried aluminum foil 
inside the box lid in an attempt to reduce the bottoming out of dashes 
in slash mode. That didn't help and may well have been detuning the 
variometer as the winds howled and causing the glitches. So it's been 
removed.
