I was running two rx stations overnight - one "mobile" with the eprobe 
magmounted on the car roof, frg100, computer etc and the other being the 
main station tx loop into the 870.

It was a very very noizy night qrn wise with a strong canadian cold front 
lifting the warm air and causing flashes and bangs over a huge swarth of the 
northern plains and lakes area gradually moving in a sweep SE direction. 
Noiz frrom these storms from the car was avg 9+10-20 with avg agc. I reckon 
most of the states and Canadian rx stations would be suffering badly 
(perhaps not...)

Even so Warrens XGJ was visible on both systems for part of the night with 
Dexs' signal huge most of the time - Both systems also showed MP close to 
776 at times

Good visible signals from VA7LF from switch on co channel with ZM2E. I only 
saw smatterings of what might have been the ZL signal at their transmission 
times but nothing I can decode. VA7LF continued to be visible some 30 mins 
after OK dawn, so I know they are radiating stronglyl!

The West coast DOD station close to 136Khz was audibly strong last night and 
into dawn this morning too, but nothing from CFH.

Im happy with the mobile set up and will be listening from XE  mobile from 
this weekend until the 15th or so.
