Frank, as anyone knows, the weather is far too nice for any antenna built
now to work.  That has been the law of the land for many decades...at least
since March 1965.  One must wait for lousy weather to build an antenna in
order to have it have a chance of working. (Actually it is called something
else.  I used to "crastinate" but got so good at it I turned pro-. )  As
you so wisely wrote, "​a perfect time to build antennas that don't
work..."  Love it.

I started log by my radio and jot down what I hear each day and at
different times.  I have to confess, I did hear one signal once.  But his
code speed was too fast for me.

And the beat goes on...
