Hi all,

 

My grabber has been offline for the last 24 hours. The reason was = that I wanted to do some HF-work, I am using the same antenna for HF and = LF.

I have not been reading my LF-mailbox until this = evening.

So after some QSO=B4s on 10 meters the grabber is back online. I = might have done some minor damage to my LF-antenna matching arrangement = so the grabber might not be with full sensitivity, let’s see what = I grabb this night.

 

By the way, I should have a copy of all the windows on my second PC = at work if needed for some comparison work.

Please let me know if someone is interested.

 

Happy new year to you all
