XDW is tripping on VSWR as it builds up across the insulators/wires/main coil protection and then gets blown off. Check the first screen on the web site - if you see the wide white dots then the beacon is on. We are due to return to Anchorage by midnite 24th (hopefully) and will 'reset' everything - definately more tuning variables in the winter than thru the summer. The good news is that the receiver is still operating and pushing Argos's to the web page. I can see our ghosts/lux effects so I consider transpolar to be fair to good at the moment - I could well be wrong. Being at the other end of the link (in the UK) I think I prefer to have DCF up on the web site versus CFH. CFH is producing strong signals at times. vy 73 + holiday wishes - Laurence KL1X in G land. >http://www.kl1x.com _________________________________________________________________ Have fun customizing MSN Messenger  learn how here! http://www.msnmessenger-download.com/tracking/reach_customize
