You seem to be dealing with it very effectively. Thank-you for running the grabber. It's a pest over here too, but sometimes useful to check the RX system. The TX will be on again tonight. In keeping with the spirit of energy conservation being requested by our power company, the TX will run at <5 watts tonight to the 100m wire. I hope to watch for the signals on your grabber.
