Hi Mike, and Happy New Year to you and your family:

Thanks for the signal to look for.. Reception conditions here today are one of those head scratching situations..
With the very cold temps down here at present; it has brought about the usual increase in powerline buzz, and,
I have static crashes that are peaking 4 S-units above the baseline noise floor.. Thus the head scratching, and
wondering - how in the world am I even hearing anything ??? Attenuation from foliage is down on both ends of
the path which might be what is making up the difference - along with your recent improvements to your antenna
setup... It is nice to see a lowFER during daylight here..
