[Lowfer] SAQ in Indiana

[Gedas]

I just wish we did not have this super weird warm front moving in from 
the southwest and south that brought in all kinds of QRN. The lightning 
crashes were elevating my NF by at least 10 dB.

As an aside, and this is not something I would normally do, I took a 
screen capture of my 2nd video and snipped out a portion and brought it 
into Photoshop where I applied some Unsharp masking. That works by 
increasing the contrast between dark and light areas. It did help as 
seen in the image at the URL below. What is neat is the wavering freq 
matches to what I was seeing on their YouTube video as they were fine 
tuning the transmitter.  73

Light travels faster than sound.....
This is why some people appear bright until you hear them speak.
