Hi Mal,

Thanks for report & comments.

I will look into the surges but I believe it was due to gusts of high wind 
on my antenna. On the previous night I could see the PA current fluttering 
with the battering the antenna got with the wind after which I tested into 
dummy load & all was steady & clean. Nothing blew up thankfully.

I ran close to your signal so I could look at the Moscow grabber due its 
limited frequency coverage.

Earlier I ran some RTTY & QRS CQ's but no replies.

73
