I forgot to add that Hepburn did not appear to predict the conditions
that were observed this morning. Hepburn only calls for "marginal"
enhancement, the lowest level.
However, when I checked the weather conditions this morning I found the
local conditions to be temperature equaling dewpoint, which resulted in
100% humidity. Bob's conditions showed a dewpoint of two degrees
lower than ambient temperature and a relative humidity of 93%. Bob and
I then concluded that this was the cause of the enhancement.
I don't claim to be any sort of expert on microwave conditions. One of
the reasons that I post these comments is that, perhaps someone who does
know more about it than I do can chime in and I can learn something.
