W7GJ is on 50190 from 7-land has gone from below
the QRN to occasionally peaking 3/3 with heavy QSB.

I saw that someone in EL90 (further north of us in
FL) worked him ... wonder if the band will come up
enough for my delta loop to get it done ...

I have a pair of stacked PAR 50's coming - they are
going up to at least 30+ feet (the lower of the two)
- will be interesting to compare them to my delta
loop with its feedpoint only at 15'.

Still trying to assemble the necessary aluminum for
my homebrew 5el yagi -- will be good to be able to
null-out stations off the back and side sometimes --
not to mention the extra gain!
