Hopefully, if we can stay away from unusual solar activity, we may be able to continue the trend for a while. I started the receiver about 2230, and checked it just after 2300 before going out to a meeting. It was obvious by then that I was seeing more detail through the noise than I had on all the earlier attempts. And I do want to point out to the North American guys that my receiving location is hardly ideal. Others should be able to better this distance if conditions hold up. Anyway, I'd like to thank you, Laurie, for sticking with the transmitting, hardly a glorious endeavor (whoops, endeavour). There's no great scientific accomplishment here, but it definitely is fun!
