Daylight paths are up about +4dB on a= verage over the past days with a peak at local Eu midday of another dB. Id = dont really want to look at other transmitters as we =3Bget a lot of sk= ew paths and =3B"off the =3Bside" effects coming in =3Bfrom the= loop. At least with DHO38 I know Im pointing my main =3Blobe at it...a= nd for its latitude is the strongest Eu signal in Alaska. ICV/GBZ etc are a= bout 10dB or more weaker...
