Hello John!

Nice to get a report from the Shetland Islands too. Looking forward to see a
capture or two later. Thanks for logging the QRG and as the PSU and PA seem=20=
to
take the beating from the QRSS pretty well I may even leave it running
overnight if I can arrange a simple bed in the shack.

The antenna tuning is varying only slightly now as the wire swings in the ge=
ntle
breeze. From startup the tuning drifted and the antenna current was below wh=
at I
had yesterday. After I started QRSS3 operation things changed fast and then
stabilized. On top of that the antenna current has increased from 0.7 to 1.0=
 A.
There must have been some thin frost on the insulators initially that the RF=
 has
melted, I have no other explanation for such rapid changes.

Best regards

Paul-Henrik
