Hi Mike,

I took a peek at your capture, and agree you have what looks like bits 
of WM.

I noticed this afternoon that the new antenna support rope has stretched 
or slipped, which has let the antenna droop. The vertical section now 
looks like a "J" with the bottom a couple feet above ground level. I 
didn't have time to correct that today, it's first on the list tomorrow. 
Maybe eliminating the droop will improve the signal strength a notch and 
put a few more bits on your screen.
