Roger,

One more thing - since you aren't set up for transceive operation and= your TX power is fairly low would it be possible for you to operate in co= ntinuous TX mode. Then we might spot more easily any fleeting openings in= propagation. It would be a shame to miss a short enhancement if it were= to occur during one of your non-transmit periods.

Just a thought

John
