Garry,

WoW, that is a strong signal.  You guys on the North side have had most 
of the real cold temps. Further South here, we have had a few nights of 
single digit, but mostly 20's to freezing temps.

I checked the Lowfer gauges on Thursday, and found the PA current lower 
than normal. I didn't have time to investigate or make changes. Our 
ground is lightly frozen, so maybe the antenna tuning is matched a 
little better. I will take a closer look tomorrow. Today is booked.

On Thursday, I was checking the Hifer gauges as I was being received on 
the new 22m WA5DJJ Super Grabber. I accessed the KPH On-line KiwiSDR to 
find my signal there too. That was in the 21:00Z timeframe. Propagation 
was cooperating that day.

Thanks for the grab
