[Lowfer] Test - Disregard, probably...

[Gedas V]

Hi JD and thank you for the reply. Summer time is rough for me simply
because in my limited physical capacity I not have much time to devote to
DX'ing as I try to take care of outside projects and constant downsizing of
hundreds of antiques inside the home. Thus far I have thrown away 25-30
beautiful antique radios of every variety, TRF's, robot faces, etc and all
because there simply is no interest in them. The biggest issue is of course
summer time static so in my spare time I have been up on 10 GHz. But rest
assured I will be back to normal listening for LF signals starting shortly
and posting results here. Also I am very embarrassed to say that I had all
good intensions to join up the group/newsletter well over a year ago when I
received a very, very kind offer and it slipped my mind. I will make sure
before COB tonight I will have applied for membership.  Also TU to you and
everyone else for making beacons available for the rest of us. And
importantly for folks efforts to get a current accurate beacon listing
available to guide us ASAP.  73 Gedas W8BYA EN70JT
