[NLRS] make more grids with your 'average' station

yes, Bruce has my posistion correct, I'd think we could use WSJT for
marginal tropo conditions.  I wasn't suggesting using meteor pings to work
EN14 from EN35.

Bruce, if you have psk31 running, then all you probably need to do is
download WSJT from http://pulsar.princeton.edu/~joe/K1JT/  it was a snap to
install.

Wouldn't WSJT or PSK31 be good modes to chirp through the weak conditions
trying to get
some coherance or intelligibility through marginal regional troposcatter
conditions?
Isn't that what Brian is getting at?  Not using meteor reflections but
getting the signal
through marginal local propagation over time?

In town here, I'd love to try some 2w PSK31 on 2meters just to exercise my
equipment.
That perhaps would lead me to WSJT.
