Greg, The two meter and 70 cm beacons are loud and clear here in Morro Bay
CM95ni!  The antennas are only 150 feet above sea level.  With a beam heading
of 343.5 degrees a three degree elevation mountain blockage some five miles
distant.  144.282 is consistent.  432.292 reaches ten db out of noise in the
morning.  Antennas are M2 436CP30 and 2MCP14.  Congratulations!  Cliff K7RR
